ABOUT THE SEMINAR
Many non-profit organisations struggle to manage large amounts of data effectively, making it difficult for boards and senior management to track progress and make informed decisions. This programme helps participants develop and implement dashboards to monitor key financial, programmatic, and fundraising indicators.
- Save time by reviewing highlights
- Track progress toward goals
- Spot potential problems
- Bring all board members up to speed around a shared knowledge base
- Reinforce board oversight by linking structure and process
Applications
Dashboards illustrate performance over time. An effective dashboard illustrates rather than tells the audience about needed actions or decisions. The reports are presented with clarity and simplicity. Ideally, a dashboard report conveys in one page the key indicators for the organization and relates those indicators to goals, historical information, or benchmarks.
The items in the dashboard may include:
- Numbers of people served
- Non-profit’s financial indicators
- Non-profit’s outreach
- Illustrate how much progress has been made towards various goals
Dash boards can be Interactive (google data studio) and non-interactive (excel), depending on non-profit’s needs and resources available.
