Lifecycles Self-Assessment: Understanding Capacity
Identify and develop your organization’s internal capacity.
Do you feel you’re squeezing all your effort, energy, and resources into delivering programs and services without a moment to take a breath and look at your internal capacity?
Imagine if you could step back from the day-to-day operations and gain clarity on where to best build and strengthen your organization.
This full-day workshop supports you to diagnose your organization’s capacity in governance, management, financial resources, and administrative systems.
From our decades of experience working with not-for-profits here in BC, we know that to truly understand your organizational capacity, it takes an in-depth understanding of your organization, its history, its current realities, and its aspirations for the future.
Suggested Participants:
Executive directors/CEOs, board members, and other senior leaders of not-for-profit organizations. Past participants have found this workshop most beneficial when two to three individuals from the organization register together.
