An NESC Roadmap enables a client to establish goals and manage the process of achieving them. It is particularly suited to small or early-stage nonprofits that do not yet need a strategic plan.

Working with the client, NESC develops a 12-18 month plan that includes:

• Prioritized and aligned goals
• Key success factors or milestones
• Supporting action plans and timeline
• Required resources
• Accountability and responsibility assigned
• Dashboard to monitor key performance indicators

Examples of goals are

• Strengthening the board of directors through recruitment and training
• Developing a fundraising plan

For each goal, the Roadmap provides:

• Necessary steps to complete + completion for each step
• Person(s) responsible for each step
• Success metrics
