Making Streamlining Stick
|
The Making Streamlining Stick guide can help you work through the changes in mindset, organizational culture, and behavior that streamlining requires—the complex issues that have no ready-made answers. Making Streamlining Stick is a companion piece to the Project Streamline Action Workshop, which helps teams from foundations and other funding organizations step back from day-to-day duties and develop plans to streamline their grantmaking processes. Much of the “Guide to Streamlining Series” provides technical solutions to technical problems. Answers exist and can be provided. For example, if you want to know more about what to look for in a nonprofit organization’s financial statement, Project Streamline has a top ten list for you. On the other hand, if you want to figure out how to get your foundation thinking differently about its relationship to grantees and its role as a grantmaker—a shift often needed to make streamlining stick—there’s no single, simple answer. In this guide, we provide a road map that will help you navigate these more complex types of questions.
