It is now recognized that all nonprofits go through several stages of development: founding, growing, maturing and reinventing. An organization that is not evolving and is stuck in one of the stages of development is normally doomed to failure. Therefore, knowing what stage your organization is in and taking steps to move it to the next phase is crucial to keeping it on the road to success. This session will explore the following topics:
- Organizational life cycles, and why organizations need to change in order to survive
- Assessing what phase of the life cycle your organization is in, and what steps are needed to advance it to the next phase
- Warning signals that your organization is in need of change, and how to address these signals
- Managing power struggles and turf battles that inevitably result when an organization is in transition
- Ensuring that staff and other stakeholders support the transition fully
- How to measure whether the transition has been effective and if any further changes are needed

The Metropolitan Area Planning Council, responsible under state law for developing a comprehensive regional plan for the Greater Boston region, sought the involvement of some 5,000 individuals and organizations to craft MetroFuture, a plan adopted in December 2008, after five years in the making. The plan has a focus on growth where people already live, work, and play, linked by an efficient transportation system and surrounded by a protected set of natural resources and amenities. Marc Draisen, executive director of MAPC, will reflect on the initiative’s success, challenges, and lessons learned, as MetroFuture is now poised to go from plan to implementation and action.
The event is free but pre-registration is required
