Corner Office: A Pathway to Efficiency and Impact

Concentrate and invest in programs aligned with your mission, and choose new programs wisely. You must continually examine your organization's programs to assess their relevancy to the mission. Set parameters, and identify programs that are misaligned and phase them out. This helps nonprofits position themselves to draw a clear line from their missions to the individual contributions of each staff member and volunteer, which enables employees and volunteers to remain connected and invested to the cause. Research shows invested employees and volunteers are efficient employees and volunteers.
