Strategic Planning

Discovering and capitalizing on the strengths and successes of your organization is the key to creating your preferred future. Next Ascent uses a profoundly positive approach for strategic planning–SOAR (Strengths, Opportunities, Aspirations and Results). SOAR is a relatively new, but well-documented and established strategic planning framework that is an alternative to the traditional SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats) analysis.

We celebrate the inherent strengths and potential within your organization and community. Together, we embark on a journey, fueled by collaboration and positivity, to elevate your fundraising efforts and foster a deeper sense of community engagement.

Coaching

Discovering the possibilities before you is the first step. Positively acting on them takes you to the next level of success. Whether you are new to your current position or a seasoned veteran in your field, understanding how to capitalize on your strengths is not only a huge precursor to success, it is an absolute must if you want to make a substantial breakthrough.
