At the Heart of Nonprofit Advancement Research: Unleashing the Power of Mutuality
Doing the work that moves society to a higher plane is difficult, but it is easier in the company of other change-committed souls. It becomes even easier when these same souls are able to play distinct and constructive roles in the business of change-making. And it becomes even easier when the change-committed souls carrying out different responsibilities are bonded by a collective sense of belonging and feel internally motivated to achieve the mission.
However, in the messiness of being enmeshed in world where misguided ideologies circulate and problematic practices take hold—a lot can get in the way of living out the ideal. This reality, coupled with the fact that we are emotional and reflexive beings, makes it necessary to focus attention on building effective relationships and engaging in a process of learning to verify that your relationship-building efforts are yielding fruit.
We support these efforts by tapping into reliable stocks of knowledge, paying attention to the specifics of context, and expertly deploying the research methods most appropriate for delivering instructive data and insights on organizational current states. We understand that the relationships driving nonprofits are varied, multilayered, and multidirectional. We anticipate and embrace these complexities and provide the deliverables that clarify the best ways forward.
