What If You Could Multiply Your Nonprofit’s Impact Using EXISTING Resources?

Your existing resources are your organization’s greatest asset, and you can get the support you need to maximize them.
A common misconception is that the answer to your challenges only lies in MORE resources, but what if you could maximize the value of your existing resources?

What Do All 
Nonprofit Organizations Need?

In our experience, they need more funding, volunteers with specific expertise, and a focused board.
As a Nonprofit Leader, I’m sure that you’re familiar with these challenges.

Based on what I hear from clients every day...

It's not getting any easier to attract more funds to deliver on your mission.

It has always been a challenge to recruit experienced volunteers.
 

And an unfocused board doesn’t help you move the needle.

 
You’re frustrated because you can’t get the results your organization needs to serve more people.
It's not getting any easier to attract more funds to deliver on your mission.
It has always been a challenge to recruit experienced volunteers.
And an unfocused board doesn’t help you move the needle. 
You’re frustrated because you can’t get the results that your organization needs to serve more people. 

Ultimately, this lack of results leads to more suffering for those your organization serves, and that is unacceptable to you. 

And you’ve tried to find solutions…

Team building activities, board retreats, leadership courses, strategic planning...

But nothing has made a difference, and you’re 
completely overwhelmed by putting out the 
day-to-day fires and piling other people’s 
responsibilities on top of your own.

What if you could build a culture of accountability, and get back to the work YOU do best?

But nothing has made a difference, and you’re completely overwhelmed 
by putting out the day-to-day fires and piling other people’s responsibilities on top of your own.

What if you could build a culture of accountability, and get back to the work YOU do best? 

Here’s why your current approach may not be working...

You may be looking to your Strategic Plan for help. 
Yet, that’s not the entire solution. 

You DO need a strategic plan, but you also need
 it to be used and people to be accountable for 
implementing the strategies and 
delivering the goals. 

...because without ownership, internalization, and accountability, your Strategic Plan isn’t much more than a 
static document, collecting dust in a 3-ring binder.

Accountability.

This course isn’t a complicated accountability strategy.

This course isn’t about an accountability process that doesn’t scale and has no real ownership behind it.  

This course doesn’t stop at a value of “Accountability” on your website. 
In order to work, accountability must be simple.

It must be applicable to the real issues you tackle every day in your nonprofit. 
It must be a lived experience for each and every stakeholder in your organization and built into the culture.

The 7-Step Accountability Framework for Nonprofits gives you a CLEAR and SIMPLE approach to establishing an accountability culture in your organization.

Hi, I’m Richard Hews, an Organizational Leadership and Change Coach. And I’m here to help you achieve accountability in your organization.

If you have tried to implement accountability in your organization, but you’re still not seeing the results you want, I want to offer you a different approach.

A lot of leaders hear the word accountability and it creates a sense of dread. It’s the kind of one-dimensional “gotcha” we might expect at the end of a failed project or initiative.  

The problem with this approach? Accountability isn’t something you add on at the end when you’re evaluating how a project went.  

In order for accountability to work, it must be built into the process from the start.  

And it’s not one-dimensional either.  

Accountability can be deconstructed into 7 simple steps, and each is essential for success.

One of the biggest misunderstandings about accountability? That it’s a one-way street meant to HOLD staff accountable, and that only leaders benefit from it.

Accountability isn’t about compliance – it’s about helping and supporting your team in their commitment to get the results you want. 

It’s a partnership, and everyone in your organization from the leadership, staff, and volunteers, to the board benefits – and especially the people you serve.  

Accountability is an underutilized way to maximize your existing resources and serve more people with your mission.

The good news?

Accountability is a choice, a decision, a process, and anyone can learn the steps for successful accountability.

Are You Ready To Maximize 
Your Resources?

My passion is to help nonprofit leaders like you deliver your vision and goals in ways that sustain, grow, and develop the organizations you lead.

I believe that people grow and thrive in the presence of high standards and compassionate support. And that everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and respect. 

I also know the landscape you’re facing with limited funds, board members who aren’t aware of how to make a full contribution, and a lack of volunteers with the desired skills and commitment.
Nonprofits need to make the most effective use of every dollar for the sake of the people they serve – especially now.
I’ve often seen that the most powerful tool for the nonprofit leader is also the most underutilized – a simple process for accountability – one based on supporting your staff in getting the results your organization needs. 
Imagine what you could achieve in support of your mission if you had more time to focus on strategic issues?

How would your organization's impact and reach grow if your staff were able to express their commitment, work more independently, and empowered to get better results? 

Your Accountable Organization gives you everything you need to implement this process in your organization in just 5 weeks.

I hope you’ll join me inside the course.
