Our Expertise

For over 15 years, Spectrum Nonprofit Services has offered nonprofit management consulting services to examine and improve the relationship between a nonprofit’s impact, finances, and people. In collaboration with your team, Spectrum Nonprofit creates a custom strategy based on those three components to effectively guide your nonprofit organization leadership – even when nothing goes according to plan. Unlike traditional static plans, the strategy that we create together lets you shift priorities and continue focusing on what matters most: serving your community.

The business plan and financial analysis tools have given us a framework and the capacity to evaluate ongoing direction and new initiatives in a thoughtful way. With each new initiative, we are asking the question, ‘How does this fulfill our mission impact and the direction of the business plan?’

As a result of the Matrix Map and the high profitability and mission impact of our childcare services, the board decided to fundraise and transform vacant space into a new childcare center! I don’t know if this would have been decided had it not been for the Matrix Map.
