Papers and Perspectives:
Comprehensive Planning

Leaders of nonprofits rarely have the chance to step outside their pressing day-to-day concerns and gain a bird’s-eye view of their long-term challenges and opportunities. When we make a major investment in a nonprofit organization, we help make this reflection possible by funding a three- to five-month planning process that is far more comprehensive than what the nonprofit sector is used to today.

To share our perspectives, process, and lessons learned about comprehensive planning, we've developed a seven-part series that documents our point of view and methodology.
