Organizational Assessment
This is an efficient look at the organization’s mission, operating structure, and administrative functions. A key part of this assessment is to establish the facts as to how well the organization is operating. Donors value knowing that they are giving to well-run institutions. We view this two hour interview with the director of the organization as a physical exam. We will ask questions to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of your enterprise which will then be presented to you and/or your Board in a professional report of findings and recommendations for your organization.
The organizational assessment will enhance your organization in the following manner:
- Measures the effectiveness of your organization against objective standards and best practices
- Provides a detailed analysis of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats.
- Provides actionable recommendations to address the findings.
- Provides the executive with key data points to share with staff, board, donors, and constituents.
- Demonstrates donor’s perspective of the organization.
Data collected from the questionnaire is compiled and presented in the following manner:
- Assessment Questionnaire: diagnostic tool used to gather information about your organization to analyze and provide insight on the activities and operations of the organization.
- Implications and Best Practices Report: provides a comparison of your organization's policies and procedures in correlation to the best practices of the non-profit and for-profit community.
- SWOT Analysis Report: identifies and discusses the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats of your organization.
- PowerPoint Presentation: a modified presentation of our findings that follows the prior two reports in which we review with you to discuss the significant findings and answer questions.
