The Strategic Allies (SA) has brought together a team of experts solely focused on the unique transition needs of 501(c)3 organizations entering into strategic partnerships, collaborations and alliances.

Today’s economic and social realities can be harsh for non-profit organizations: increased competition, shrinking donor pools, demands for new technologies, staffing pressures, new governance regulations and public scrutiny. Combine all of these challenges with the difficulties in identifying outstanding leadership, as well as recruiting and developing an effective governance board, and it’s a world that seems to be conspiring against the success of many non-profit organizations.

 

How to respond? For many groups, it may mean collaborations with “competitors.” Others may be ready to move beyond collaboration to explore formal partnerships, ranging from alliances to joint ventures. In some cases, these can mean the difference between a mission that survives, and one that vanishes and is forgotten.

 

Where to start?

Building strategic partnerships is a challenging and complex process and, if not properly managed, the process can end in frustration, wasted energy, squandered resources and failure. That’s where we can help.
