Organizational Excellence Assessment

This assessment tool can be used to get a reasonable impression of the quality of the most important practices in your nonprofit.

Your information in the assessment will not be shared with anyone else.

You could use results of this assessment tool to:

1) ensure a strong foundation from which to add a program or undertake a major change effort;

2) do an internal analysis as part of an overall strategic planning activity;

3) develop a common understanding among leaders regarding what needs to be done in your nonprofit; and

4) assess how your nonprofit compares to what many nonprofit experts suggest as standards for nonprofits.

The assessment tool is divided into different categories of specific performance indicators, including: legal, governance, human resources, strategic planning, program planning, evaluations, finances and fundraising.

Next to each specific indicator are choices, including “Met,” “Needs Work,” “Not Applicable,” and “Don’t Know.” After reading each indicator, place a check mark under the appropriate choice as to how your nonprofit performs to that indicator.
