Strategic
planning in a changed world
Progressive non-profits will not be served by planning that
dusts off old strategic plans or tinkers around the edges.
Media, information sharing, the public’s attention,
finances and politics—crucial variables in organizational
success—have all changed fundamentally since old plans
were written. Organizations taking responsibility for their
futures need to confront those changes and adjust their course
to address them. Rhino Associates is working with organizations
ready to do this hard work out of a commitment to their mission.
Executive coaching
Tough times often prompt leadership transitions. Some organizations
put in place talented staff members who are new to the full
array of a chief executive’s responsibilities. Others
recruit seasoned executives from other sectors or different
kinds of organizations. Sometimes experienced executives seek
the support and feedback of someone who knows what they are
juggling. Rhino Associates provides confidential coaching
tailored to the needs of each executive.
Strategic assistance to individual philanthropists
Donors trying to make a difference in the world seldom come
from within the non-profit sector with which their philanthropy
prompts them to interact. Non-profits can seem arcane and
inefficient with vocabularies and customs that are baffling.
It can be difficult to communicate philanthropic goals and
feel confident that grants are used productively. Rhino Associates,
with 20 years in the sector, working with donors and foundations
as well as activists, provides assistance in clarifying and
translating philanthropic goals and establishing relationships
with organizations through which philanthropists can support
the kinds of change that matters to them.
