The Winkler Group was founded in 2004 to challenge the status quo in philanthropic consulting. After 15 years in higher education advancement, founder Tim Winkler had grown frustrated with the one-size-fits-all approach of traditional firms. He envisioned a firm that prioritized collaboration over cookie-cutter advice—and that vision became the Winkler Group.

Today, our team of expert consultants shares that same passion: helping mission-driven organizations thrive through smart strategy, sustainable growth, and personalized counsel.

If you’re ready for a consulting partner who’s as committed to your mission as you are, welcome to the Winkler Group.
