Project details

What we need
  • A detailed, unbiased audit of the Organization's culture including current strengths and areas of improvement
  • Actionable steps to promote team happiness and productivity
Additional details

We will need our employees to be surveyed

What we have in place
  • We currently have a mission, vision, and values statement, which should make it easy for you to get started. We also have long standing board and staff members, and the ability to provide any other information you need.
How this will help
This project will save us $10,298 , allowing us to invest in resources to help our organization grow, provide professional development to staff and ultimately serve our community more impactfully.

Our organization was created from a parent affiliate organization about 4 years ago. We are growing and at a critical point in our growth where we need to establish our own separate identity and workplace culture. It can be confusing to the staff and board members about policies, procedures, and culture that are originated by the parent organization and assumed to be adopted by our organization. Having someone help identify and establish our own culture will ultimately help us serve community
