Take your nonprofit to the next level!
STRATEGY
86% of nonprofit leaders believe the presence of a strategic plan helps their ability to raise funds.
Grow in the right direction.
Here at Sefton Creative Co., we understand the importance of strategic planning. If your organization feels lost at sea, all you need is a destination, a map to get there, and effective leaders to captain the ship. We want to help you build your organization's internal capacity, implement policies and best practices to level up your governance, and craft a plan to propel you into the future.
strategize, communicate, develop
Your organization is on a mission. How clear is it? Do you have the resources to accomplish it? Does your staff believe in it? Is your board poised to accomplish it? Do your policies support it? Do your programs support it? Are you setting yourself up to accomplish it next year? In three years? What about ten years?
​
These are all questions that nonprofit organizations must answer. Our goal is to help you strategize what's next in your organization's lifecycle, communicate it to your multitude of stakeholders, and rally support around it.
My Process
I like to keep the process simple and easy for you.
Together, we will develop a strategy, and I'll stay by your side to implement it for as long as you need me.
01
DISCOVERY
I will work with the leaders of your organization to better understand your mission, vision, values, and goals.
02
RESEARCH
I will collect a variety of qualitative and quantitative data that will inform the rest of our time working together.
03
PLAN
In this stage, I will work with you and your board to develop goals, objectives, strategies, and key performance indicators (KPIs) to help you plan for success.
04
IMPLEMENT
We will work together throughout the duration of our engagement. After the strategy is in place, you'll be in the driver's seat, and I will continue to help you navigate as much as you need.
A Plan That Works
Your strategic plan does you no good on a shelf.
In my time leading nonprofits, I've found that many of them overcomplicate the work of strategic planning. I will work with you to develop a single, simple document that takes the guesswork out of strategic planning.
​
We will first review your mission, vision, and values. Then, we will assess your program focuses to ensure that they are aligned. Next, we will create goals for your organization. Finally, we will work to develop objectives under each goal that outline the who, what, when, where, why, and how.
​
The best part? This document is in the perfect format to track progress and report back to your board regularly to show them how much you've achieved!
