Assessment and Evaluation: Evaluate the structure,
internal process, leadership structure and organization. Students need to provide
information on the organization, need-based assessment, mission review, power
structures, key actors, and any relevant information that you believe will be useful to
improve its performance.

Planning and Process: After evaluating the needs of your organization, you
will need to engage in a planning process to explore the best practices, challenges and
needs as well as the best way to fulfill their mission. You also need to engage in a risk
analysis, crisis management plan, fundraising plan, and a communications plan. A
strategic plan must be included in the report as well as a fundraising plan. Incorporate
leadership, management skills and organization’s culture/change theory and practice
into your analysis, discussion, and strategies.

and Final Presentation will be the products of your engagement with the assigned
organization and logical conclusions of your evaluation and recommendation process in
which you have been engaging throughout the semester. Students will use the
information, data and analysis from the reports developed for this course, as well as
readings and tools learned/ improved in our classes, to write a Final Report with
recommendations for the assigned organizations. With the report you will demonstrate
an integrated understanding of the theories, concepts and fundamental issues involved
within successful management and apply that knowledge to an organization. The
assignment includes an in-class 5 minutes presentation with your finding and
recommendations.
