Jonathan Mitchell PhD, Founder and President
Jonathan Mitchell is president of Concentric Development. His academic preparation in physics, public policy and international environmental management combined with more than 20 years of experience in the international development industry has given him the ability to productively engage with a wide variety of stakeholders ranging from illiterate farmers to senior public policy architects and heads of state. Over the course of his career he has worked for a broad spectrum of faith-based and secular development organizations that include faith-based groups, Mercy Corps, the Aga Khan Development Network, as a senior advisor for USAID, a senior scientist for RTI International's international development group, and more recently with CBN, David Weekley Foundation and Neverthirst. These experiences have enabled him to observe and participate in the international development industry from a wide variety of perspectives. With this base of experience he has a knack for coming alongside field staff to devise simple but effective monitoring and evaluation solutions as well as strategies for increased impact.
