🟠 Choice is determined by Board directives or leadership suggestions - not necessarily guided by evidence-based decisions

Under developed: Fundraising decisions are mostly top driven and may also be limited to individuals exclusively responsible for raising funds.

Reflection:

  • Examine stated organisation and culture and practiced behaviour.
  • Design and conduct internal surveys to develop action plan for improvement.
  • How can development of a certain culture in a team enable better and stronger performance.
  • Is this a sensitive subject to be discussed? Is this seen as uneconomic and not as a priority?
  • No response required as we a process in place to inspire and regulate desired behaviour within the team.
  • Others -

Action:

  • Conduct a culture assessment exercise and create an alignment pathway on findings.
  • Create better standards and processes to initially regulate and thereby inspire desired behaviour gradually.
  • No actions are required as we are deeply satisfied with prevailing culture.

Notes for Development:

  1. Fundraising decisions are mostly top driven and may also be limited to individuals exclusively responsible for raising funds.

  2. Fundraising startegies and thereby choices, are best taken by- management, leadership, core group of staffs, and the fundraising professionals together. Each play vital role (for various perspectives) in taking such decisions, and thereby own these decisions.

  3. Develop a way of taking fundraising decisions collectively - leadership, management, fundraisers, program staffs, and the remaining core group of people. This will enable a path towards more informed and strategic choices.
