A message from the founder
Rho Singletary
Founder and Principal Consultant
I was the first person in my family to graduate from college. I entered adulthood with ambition, education, and potential, but without a clear roadmap for how to turn any of it into a meaningful career and life.
My journey through youth services, behavioral health, financial services, community development, and executive leadership showed me that talent is rarely the problem. What is often missing is guidance, exposure, confidence, relationships, and access to people who can help make the path clearer.
PISM+PRIM is the work I wish had existed when I was finding my own way. It is also my commitment to helping young people move forward with greater intention while helping the institutions around them become stronger partners in that journey.

Every engagement begins with listening. We assess what is present, clarify what is needed, design the right approach, and help move the work into action.
Our priority service area builds identity, confidence, voice, mentorship, leadership, relationships, career exposure, and readiness for adulthood.
Leadership identity, executive presence, career clarity, communication, confidence, and professional growth.
Stronger systems, clearer processes, leadership alignment, culture, accountability, and sustainable capacity.
Talent pipelines, early career pathways, mentorship, employee engagement, retention, and workforce innovation.
Partnership development, convening, collaboration, shared strategy, and stronger community ecosystems.
A more holistic approach
The issue is rarely a lack of potential. Too often, people are navigating without a roadmap while organizations invest without a connected strategy. PISM+PRIM was created to close that gap.
