The framework in detail The long shot

Starting with the big picture, the framework looks at:

** What you achieve - results
** What helps you to do this - enablers

For any group or organisation, it is important to achieve results, whether you're a small local group or a big company. A big chain store might be interested in profits, the value of its shares and public image. You might be more interested in improved quality of life, helping others or a better community. They are all results.

Results do not happen on their own. You need people, property, money and systems, 'the enablers' to help you get those results.

Enablers Results
  Under Enablers we look at two things

Direction
Direction describes where an organisation wants to go and how it plans to get there.

Are you clear where are you going? Who is steering you in that direction? Does everyone know the route? How are you going to travel and who with?

Processes - everyday activities

Everyday activities or processes are the means by which direction is put into action. These are the plans and systems through which the organisation operates.

How well do you plan, manage, pay for and deliver activities? Do you have ways of checking on and improving what you do?







Under Results we look at two things

Stakeholder satisfaction - Keeping everyone happy 
Stakeholder Satisfaction describes the needs and views of people who have an interest in or who are affected by the organisation. They are VIPS:

V - Volunteers
I - Influencers
P - paid staff, partners and people we help
S - Supporters/funders

Who are the stakeholders of your organisation? Why is it important to keep them happy? How do you know if they are happy or what makes them happy?

Positive Impact - achieving success 

Positive impact describes the success an organisation has beyond just pleasing the VIPS.

What difference is your organisation making? How do you prove this? Are you improving as an organisation? Do you have a good public image?
