Fundraising is part skill, part relationship, and part genuine belief in what you're selling. Janine brings all three, and she makes it look effortless. She didn't pitch. She connected. The result was partners who didn't just write checks — they became advocates. Anyone working in the nonprofit or social impact space who gets the chance to work with her should take it.
Brett WoudenbergFormer CEO, MIND Research Institute
A true leader leads from the heart with empathy, executes with purpose, and moves with fearlessness — inspiring others not only by vision, but by the courage to care, act, and rise in the face of uncertainty. Janine is all of that and more. She demonstrates relationships over transactions and the value of team success versus individual accomplishments.

After a challenging fundraising year without senior leadership in place, HomeAid Orange County | Los Angeles hired Seasons of Change Leadership Solutions to serve as our Interim Fractional Chief Development Officer. In just a few short months, Janine Koeneke developed a creative 2027 development plan that our entire Board and staff are excited about! Additionally, she is now helping us identify and hire a full-time Development Director to implement and enhance the 2027 strategic plan. Janine brings infectious enthusiasm and a clear vision to our team, and it is a joy working with her.

Summer Recap

It’s been an exciting summer for Seasons of Change Leadership Solutions!

Officially launched in late spring, we started the summer working with two Southern California based nonprofit organizations. Ongoing services being provided include executive coaching and leadership training for an internal advancement candidate into the top leadership position, and providing fractional Chief Development Officer duties focused on 2027 fundraising strategies.

Additionally, Janine Koeneke went on a fascinating and awe-inspiring journey to Egypt to represent Seasons of Change Leadership Solutions at a professional women’s conference. Entitled “The Egypt Experience” – the conference focused on four themes:

  • 👓 Creating Order and Vision
  • 🌍 Establishing a Leadership Legacy
  • 👑 Tapping Into Your Team's Natural Gifts
  • 🥷 Fearless Leadership

Amidst the wonders of the Pyramids, the Sphinx, and the beautiful Nile River, our group explored how to build a legacy in our own work and lives, and we discussed ways to strengthen our communities by supporting each other’s gifts and growth. Finally, we had fun taking and sharing photos of one another that focused on seeing our own strength and resilience through the eyes of others. It was magical. To learn more about how you can participate in this adventure in 2027 – visit The Egypt Experience.
