Do you believe these three strategic planning myths?
Strategic planning is as essential for nonprofits as it is for businesses. Check out these three planning myths and let us know if you’re ready to consider how a nonprofit consultant can improve help you create an actionable strategic plan. Don’t shortchange your mission or the people you serve by letting another year go by without one.
Culture eats strategy for breakfast
It’s always a good time to stop and take stock of your nonprofit’s culture and related reputation. The best way to do that is by partnering with a nonprofit consultant to assess organizational norms and interview stakeholders for their input. Consultants bring expertise and objectivity to the table, encouraging stakeholders to open up and providing important insights and recommendations. Culture assessments can be done as part of a nonprofit strategic planning or fundraising planning process, or on their own to address issues and improve alignment within the mission.
Recruiting your best nonprofit board
The best way to develop a high-impact nonprofit board is to recruit members based on organizational needs and expectations. Sharing your organization’s mission in the right light gives potential board members a clear picture of their future role on your team and ensures they can serve.
