A short check-up for overloaded nonprofit teams. In about 5–7 minutes, this assessment helps you figure out where work feels hardest, what is causing the most operational drag, and where to focus first.
Most nonprofits already know they are stretched. The hard part is naming what is actually breaking down: the work itself, the handoffs, the data, the tools, or ownership. This diagnostic is meant to make that picture clearer fast.
We are looking for three things: what matters most to your organization, where people are feeling the most friction, and where weak systems or unclear ownership are making everyday work harder than it should be.
A short readout of likely pressure points, the operating patterns behind them, and the types of interventions most likely to help.
Quick mode is best for a fast first pass. Full mode asks a bit more so the readout is sharper.
These questions help us avoid generic recommendations. We use them to understand what kind of nonprofit you are, what kinds of work you juggle, and which pressures are most likely to be real for your team.
For each area below, give us two quick reactions: how important it is to your organization, and how difficult it feels to run well right now. This helps us focus only on the areas most worth your time.
We are now zooming in on the few areas that seem most important and most painful. Keep it quick. You do not need perfect answers — just your honest read on how these areas work in real life.
