Strategic Planning & Organizational Development

Strategic Planning & Organizational Development

It is critical that organization leaders and managers know how to effectively manage the relationship between their program functions and their fundraising. Failures in organizational management and strategic planning are often the root cause of financial instability. We can help you fix what is not working.

But don’t forget that acquisition and cultivation are the critical feeders for your high net revenue and high ROI producing fundraising efforts. And these programs, along with your mid, major, and planned gift programs, must be organized and managed in an integrated manner. Most often, they aren’t, and that is what causes financial and organizational failure.

Ask yourself these three questions:

Why Structure Matters?

Does your leadership, staff, and the Board have a solid understanding of how the donor pipeline works, is structured, and should be resourced?

Are You Seeing These Warning Signs?

Does everyone in the organization know that a donor (institutional/individual) must be treated as a partner not a source of cash?

Is everyone on board with the truth that a non-profit must have two equally valued and practiced objectives: To address a societal need and, To fulfill the passions and interests of its donors
