Ready Set Go!Business Integration
Many people who enter the world of non-profit management are rightly focused on mission priorities. But in today's economic climate, organizations cannot survive without also working carefully on issues of financial viability. An integrated approach to this "double-bottom line" (mission and finance) is critical to the survival of both non-profit organizations and family-owned businesses today. Many mission-oriented operations can benefit from insights developed in the business world.
In ten years of working with The Other Side, I not only helped the organization integrate the tools of business, but just as importantly helped to interpret those tools for my more suspicious colleagues. While the goals of profit-making should not apply in mission-oriented settings, the tools of resource management and careful planning are still essential. The success of your mission depends on issues of stewardship and sustainability every bit as much as it depends on your inspiration and commitment.
Finding a healthy balance between mission and finance, between creativity and structure can be challenging for any group of people. I can help you, your staff, and your board to think through the ramifications of different choices to find the right ones for your operation.
