Leading & Organizing
You don’t have to be a “leader” to provide leadership. Knowing what enables people to meaningfully connect with your ministry, and how to structure their involvement are essentials of good leadership. You may do all the right things in a developmental relationship and still experience failure. You must also safeguard what influences people’s attitudes in and out of your organization. Practically speaking, good leadership gets things done. Our proven model works for planning anything!

Strategic Planning
In our experience, 90% of all Strategic Plans fail! And, most Mission Statements fall woefully short in giving senior leadership, staff, and volunteers the direction, guidance, encouragement, and support they need. Yet, your Development Plan cannot be effective if it’s not connected to your ministry’s Strategic Plan and Mission. This course uses our proven process to help refine your current Mission Statement and Strategic Plan and then directly connect your Development Plan so your Mission is accomplished.
Course
Objectives:
- Learn the difference between “outputs” and “outcomes”.
- Learn and practice the process for identifying outcomes that genuinely have meaningful impact.
- Review your ministry’s Vision & Mission Statements and suggest revisions to strengthen them.
SAVE 50% on Tuition — We encourage your development director, executive director, senior leadership, and board members to take Strategic Planning together. Each additional person from your ministry enrolling with you in Strategic Planning, may enroll for 50% off regular course tuition.
The team at Non-Profit Authority was extremely helpful to our ministry. They helped us establish a strategic planning process which helped revise our vision and mission statements. They also helped our board to better understand their role in implementing the mission to accomplish the larger vision. I would highly recommend them to any non-profit wishing to take their ministry to a new level.
Consulting
Your Board members want your ministry to thrive, but few people have had any training or coaching to prepare for the role. Whether you are a startup or well established ministry, we’ll walk alongside you to take your Board to the next level.
