Nina B. Winston Consulting services are designed to make an impact. Nina’s ability to drive successful outcomes is demonstrated by a career of upward growth, from vice president to executive vice president and executive director.

01
Redesigning partnership programs.
All organizations with membership and partnership programs need to be looking at how to deliver the most value to their stakeholders, and create meaningful, sustainable relationships with their partners. I have reinvented, refreshed and overhauled these types of programs for numerous organizations, increasing engagement and driving new revenue growth.
02
Spearheading turnarounds
and strategy refreshes.
I have rebuilt and transformed departments, programs and entire organizations to reestablish their financial stability and strategic focus.
03
Placemaking and
community engagement.
As a volunteer, I served on the founding executive team for a local park in my neighborhood. I helped lead the organization and community through a strategic planning and placemaking process to ensure strategies and goals met the needs of multiple stakeholders.
04
Leading new culinary
programs and initiatives.
I served in a leadership role on the multi-stakeholder launch team that brought the James Beard Foundation Awards to Chicago. Earlier in my career, I developed a pilot social enterprise project — an indoor farmer’s market in downtown Chicago — that delivered significant economic impact to local farmers and culinary startups.
05
Creating global collaborations
between commerce and culture.
Partnering with arts organizations, including the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and The Second City when they toured Europe and Asia, I worked with city and state leaders to develop in-market cultural and tourism development missions for Chicago and Illinois.
Let’s work together.
