A good development plan should be inward-facing, as well as outward-facing. It should examine your organization’s:
INWARD:
- Board: housekeeping and objectives
- Staff: structure and goals
- Data: collection and reporting, the how and the what
OUTWARD:
- Donors: current and prospective
- Tactics: cultivation and stewardship
- Metrics: program and organizational
A refreshed and recently reviewed development plan is the hallmark of any robust, forward-moving organization!
