By implementing the organizational development model we had designed, we provided them with a blueprint based on the models we created to address all the concerns shared by the client, and the board and revealed by our analysis. The program we designed would significantly enhance the visibility for the organization as a whole, enhance the brand, and provide them with direction to build a sustainable model for the organization, including additional programs that would meet the needs of a broader audience.
We helped the client identify how to reach the new market that had both the interest and income to support the organization without alienating the audience they had originally set out to server. Moreover, our strategic model also provided them with a construct to help them identify new, motivated board members that would be assets to the organization. Given the nature of the work that the organization does and the impact that they make, this was an important project for the local community.
As a result of the project, the client enjoyed the following results:
- Restructured the organization and its board to improve performance and effectiveness
- Increased the number programs the organization would offer
- Established strong leadership support via new Board of Directors
- Partnership with local companies
- Identified and connected the organization with much better communities
- Enhanced brand awareness
- A clear plan for implementation of stage III organizational growth
