Organisational Strength Review
Our Organisational Strength Review provides an independent, objective and confidential 360° review of your organisation’s strengths and weaknesses, alongside practical recommendations to strengthen governance, culture, finances and impact.
We engage with staff, trustees, volunteer and service users to develop a practical report that highlights what is working well, what needs to improve, and what to do next.
Approach
We analyse the context in which your organisation works, identifying the priority areas for improvement so that you remain effective in your area of work. Our review includes:
- An organisational health check
- One-to-one confidential interviews with key staff, trustees, volunteers and service users
- Analysis and review of key documentation
- The production of a detailed report analysing what works well, what could improve and practical next steps.
The Report made us look at our “norms” and challenged our thinking. It made us think about accountability, quality standards, income diversity and general promotion of the organisation. For me personally, it has become an essential working document that will make us stronger and more resilient in the future.
