Associations and NGO’s
Association Management Consultants
NGO Consultancy
With more than 50 Association and Non-Governmental Organization clients, we have a deep understanding and appreciation for the unique conditions and requirements of these special organizations. As a specialized Association and NGO management consultancy, we assist regional, national and international mission driven organizations with association and NGO strategic planning and operational effectiveness.
Compared to any large company, association and NGO organizational structures can be complex and unwieldy. Whether a federated model, a charter model, or any of the other structures of associations and NGO’s operate, central bodies simply don’t have the same clout as the corporate office of any well-run company. We help association and NGO clients ensure their strategy drives their structure wherever possible.
Association and NGO strategy consultants won’t make these complexities go away, but we will help to clarify mandates, priorities, accountabilities and timelines so associations and NGO’s can focus their efforts on the seriousness and importance of their mission. Increasingly, large associations and NGO’s are conducting themselves more like businesses. The tools and processes required are similar, and we help associations and NGO’s take an even more deliberate and measured approach to planning and execution than profit-driven enterprises.
