Strategic Planning
FRCI can work with your organization in the creation of a three-to five-year strategic plan. The process includes individual interviews with staff, board, and key donors and stakeholders, as well as facilitating a formal planning retreat to create the strategic plan.
Board and Staff Training
FRCI can customize full - or half-day sessions on governance, solicitation and cultivation training, or on strategic planning for an organization’s board or staff. We will build a training program tailored to the expectations, culture and complexity of your organization.
Board/Staff Retreat Planning and Facilitation
FRCI is skilled at facilitating meetings and retreats of your board and/or staff. These facilitated meetings may focus on such issues as governance, board/staff interactions, strategic planning, or any other relevant issue.
Solicitation Training and Coaching
Many development professionals, organization executives and board members aren’t comfortable with cultivating or soliciting charitable gifts. FRCI will lead organization representatives through a half- or full-day training process to build and developing solicitation skills.
Grant Proposal Writing
FRCI can organize or fine-tune your organization’s grant writing program. We can prepare a general grant template, which your organization can modify as needed, write proposals on a short-term basis during times of staff transition, or coordinate and manage all of your organization’s grant writing needs.
Conference Workshops and Presentation
FRCI consultants are skilled presenters and can provide targeted workshops and presentations for individual organizations or nonprofit conferences.
