Why Strategic Impact Frameworks Matter
Third sector organisations are already mission-driven, but developing robust strategic impact frameworks helps you demonstrate systematic thinking that enhances core mission delivery. When your impact approach is strategic rather than ad-hoc, you can show funders and stakeholders that your organisation thinks systematically about creating and measuring positive change.
Whether you’re a charity wanting to demonstrate comprehensive impact to major donors, a CIC showing strategic thinking to social investors, or a not-for-profit seeking to strengthen community relationships whilst enhancing funding applications, strategic impact frameworks help you achieve multiple objectives simultaneously.
What Your Organisation Will Achieve
This workshop helps third sector organisations develop robust strategic impact frameworks that enhance funding applications, strengthen stakeholder relationships, and demonstrate accountability whilst maximising community impact.
Enhanced Funding Success:
- Strengthen funding applications with robust strategic impact frameworks that demonstrate systematic thinking to funders
- Create compelling narratives showing how your strategic approach amplifies the core mission and creates measurable value
