Governance & Leadership

The growth and success of any organization is determined by leadership and operations. When these two things are misaligned communities suffer. This is why R&M prioritizes developing effective governance and leadership.

Leadership is essential for achieving organizational goals. Their background and experience in the subject matter must translate to a deeper investment in the mission. R&M specializes in identifying and cultivating leaders with a perspective crucial to the mission and community.

Staff is responsible for implementation of ambitious solutions. In the execution of  new strategies R&M provides relevant training and support to team members. This creates cohesion and clarity in the work.

Board development is integral to strategies pursuing mission driven programs. They must set the policies for the ED, provide access to new donors, and actively guide the mission. R&M works to ensure a healthy and active board is engaged in the mission.

Mission Driven Programs

The program is the organization’s offering to the community. A major challenge is knowing for sure if the program is achieving the mission and how resource allocation will secure effective delivery of the program.

Two questions every organization asks:

What is our community impact benefit?

Are our programs driving the mission?

R&M believes the best programs create future opportunity. The program illuminates a comprehensive end solution and the organization identifies the role it will play in this solution. The clarity and purpose this provides enables mission driven programs to achieve sustainability.

Social Media

A proactive Social Media strategy is the accelerant to achieving organizational goals. When fully integrated, Social Media multiplies awareness and impact.

R&M demystifies and translates Social Media’s utilization into fundraising activities. This is what gives an organization the competitive advantage. The ability to utilize Social Media gives access to, and control of, data that drives new fundraising. They are now positioned with an active online presence ready to raise new levels of investment exceeding traditional fundraising alone. The organization no longer searches for donors and funders, they are found.

THE OUTCOME: measured
results

Results must be measurable so success can be replicated. Each portion of this formula has its own unique definitions of what to measure for the outcomes desired. Comprehensive sustainable fund development is achieved through the implementation and integration of Governance and Leadership, Mission Driven Programs, and Social Media.
