As we head into the busy fall season, the need for decision-making can sometimes seem endless. Instead of blindly throwing a dart, use these three questions to make informed choices and pinpoint your actions.
1) What do you want to accomplish?
Save money... make money... improve efficiency... change opinions... make a splash... etc.
2) How might your decision impact your supporters and those you serve?
Will it bring them closer or push them away... increase or decrease the likelihood that they'll engage or respond... will they feel pleased or concerned, or maybe they won't notice.... etc.
3) What action has the best chance of moving your organization forward?
It's probably not the exact same action you took last time. And the "answer key" you seek is often right under your nose... in your data... in your results... in your knowledge of the past... your understanding of current best practices... and your keen sense of where you're headed (see question #1.)
