Services
We draw on latest developments in the private and public sectors, but we know that all consultancy in the nonprofit sector has to be based on an understanding of the special characteristics of the sector:
- Objectives are hard to specify precisely
- Impact is difficult to measure
- Organisations are accountable to many different stakeholders
- Governance structures are complex
- Voluntarism is an essential ingredient
- Values have to be cherished.
Consultancy in the sector also has to be delivered in ways that reflect both the culture of the sector as a whole and the unique culture of each organisation.
