Boston Nonprofit Leaders Convene to Discuss How to Effectively Manage Strategy In the Face of Unprecedented Challenges

The conversation was then joined by Marjean Perhot, from Catholic Charities Archdiocese of Boston. Ms. Perhot explained how their new method of reporting was able to align the field staff with the management team. "The direct line staff 'get it,' and they were happy to help collect data and demonstrate how their work links with the strategy of the organization," said Marjean. "Our board members were able to understand our progress and align their activities and requests to our strategy. Because of our use of the Balanced Scorecard, we have become a 'go-to' agency for the government during this financial crisis."
