Strategic Planning & Organizational Development

Strategic Planning & Organizational Development

Organizations are sometimes broken or dysfunctional, making effective fundraising impossible. We’ll help you discern the problem areas, and chart a path back to success.

Build a culture of philanthropy
Inspire your colleagues to get on the same page and work with common purpose

One of the biggest problems hindering robust mid, major and planned gift donor fundraising is that organization systems and functions either do not exist or are not operating properly.

What does a healthy organizational culture look like?

Your mission includes donors
Everyone embraces fundraising as essential
Board members are biggest cheerleaders
Mutual respect between “program” and “development”
Donors trust the organization
Everyone knows the organization’s “story”
Your sense of mission and passion are palpable
