Community capacity building

  • The client is an Australian Not-for-Profit that offers casework and community programs for migrants, refugees and diverse communities

  • The board lacked visibility of whether the organization was delivering on its mission and working on the right priorities. Management wanted clear success measures to work towards that aligned with the strategy and future growth areas

  • The organization is set to grow significantly over the next few years. The board wanted to ensure that the organization continues to meet client needs and addresses cultural, financial and governance issues during this growth period


Key Activities


Through two half day workshops over two months with the CEO and the board, we:

Provided training on Objectives and Key Results (OKRs) , including the purpose and what good OKRs look like

Identified organiztation’s high-level objectives, and aligned leadership team on key priorities for the upcoming year

Co-developed OKRS that aligned with the strategy and future direction of the organization to increase transparency of progress and measure social impact

Results

35% increase in the confidence and alignment after the workshop (from 50% to 85% average score)

50% increase in the objectives that are measurable and quantifiable (from 50% to 100%)
