When COO Team Founder, Lori M Ruffin, MBA, left a Fortune 100 company to help a start-up marketing agency serve international nonprofits, she worked with brilliant organizations who were ruthlessly committed to their mission, but under optimized in their operations.
Nonprofit leaders felt strapped for resources. They were trying to execute big missions – in some cases – with small teams. Some lacked the internal systems, processes or expertise to increase the effectiveness of their operations.
She decided to help.
She started working with nonprofit leaders to understand their vision and mission, develop a solid executable strategy and the supporting systems to help them scale the impact of their mission.
After years of serving private clients, she launched the COO Team to leverage a team of experts to help non-profit leaders optimize their resources and accelerate their impact.
The COO Team is now taking a handful of social impact leaders through a 90-day Strategy Academy cohort to create a personalized executable strategic plan.
As a result of joining the 90-Day Strategy Cohort you will…
- Be guided through a strategic planning process and gain clear direction for yourself and your team – it feels good to be proactive vs reactive
- Increase operational efficiency – having a road map helps you get there more quickly
- Strengthen your organization from the inside out – imagine going from busy to effective
- Be prepared to seize opportunities to advance your mission such as funding and partnership opportunities
This is right for you if:
- You are a social impact leader (nonprofit, social enterprise) currently providing a service
- You need to revisit your strategic plan or don’t have one
- You are ready to learn and invest in working ON your organization, not just IN your organization
- You want to network with and learn from other nonprofit leaders
- You are tired of not having a plan and want help facing your organizational challenges head on
- You are ready to engage weekly in a 90 day sprint that will position you to execute of the next 12-24 months
