When change is done WELL (Well-intentioned; carefully Executed; aptly Lead; and all-Lifting), it fosters creativity to problem solve and innovate and spurs organizational growth and learning.
We believe funders aren’t doing all they can unless they value effective practice as integral to strategy and take concrete steps to make grantmaking practice — and grants management — everyone’s business.
To be streamlining champions, grants management professionals need to have the skills and attributes to take on this kind of complex and sensitive work.
