Organisational developmentStrategic planning and change management

A strong strategic direction, clear purpose and a practical plan drives success. We help you look at opportunities and threats with a fresh perspective and tailor plans to your organisation. We use plain language and engaging workshops. You will develop a plan that is practical and that establishes clear accountabilities.

We assist with management frameworks and processes to ensure your plans are implemented and can be reviewed and updated regularly.

Achieving something of value inevitably involves change. Technology, legislation, regulations, competition and client expectations also drive constant change. Successful organisations anticipate and lead change. They are thought leaders and are continuously operating in today’s environment but positioning for the future.

We help you take a step back, look at the big picture and lead change. From your vision and planning to building flexible operational and marketing systems that enable your organisation to adapt to change, we partner with you to ensure you remain a valued contributor to your community.

Marketing and communicationsStrategy and campaign management

We specialise in strategic marketing of health, education, disability, aged care and social services.

Marketing and communications impact is greatest when it has a clear strategy that is executed well. Marketing involves the whole consumer experience. Marketing management can now require skills in strategy, product development, pricing, distribution, advertising, branding design, web development, search engines, technology, mobile devices, reporting and analysis, public relations, copywriting, photography, video, printing and logistics.

4community offers a partnership with our strategic marketing and communication specialists. We work effectively with CEOs and boards, marketing managers and internal marketing teams. We help you take a fresh look at your organisation, what you have to offer and how you can grow.

Our integrated approach leverages the strengths of each organisation and enables you to achieve real marketing results.

Management systems Planning and implementation

Management systems can enable you to operate efficiently and respond rapidly to change or shackle you to your past.

Investing in business systems needs to be done with a clear view of the future and a focus on change management. Change management around new systems is often more complex than the technical implementation.

4community partners with leading IT vendors to deliver business systems with:

Lower upfront implementation costs

Lower capital costs

Greater flexibility

Greater functionality tailored to the not-for-profit, health, education and social services sectors

We start with your goals, document the strengths and limitations of your current systems and produce a clear project scope. We facilitate system review and selection and help you develop implementation and change management plans. We support you throughout the implementation to ensure the benefits of your investment are captured.

With the right model, team and infrastructure, when you raise more money you can have a greater impact.

We help you increase your income by reviewing your fundraising strategies, analysing data and trends in your fundraising database, reviewing donor perceptions, and developing creative, carefully targeted campaigns, activities and donor development programs.

Our fundraising specialists and creatives develop innovative ideas tailored to each organisation and assist in the execution of fundraising campaigns.

Training and skills developmentPlanning, systems and learning material development

Education, training and skill development connect the public with your cause and increase the effectiveness of members, consumers, volunteers and staff. Developing useful learning resources requires considerable thought and management time. It is crucial to get lasting value from this investment by creating learning experiences that are engaging and memorable.

Your audience, objectives and delivery options drive the approach and medium that will work best. Options we offer include:

Presentation materials and workbooks for large groups

Resources for small group facilitation

Mass media opportunities

Social media engagement initiatives

Video and eLearning resources

Your audience may be spread over multiple locations and time-poor. Numerous distractions compete for their attention.

4community works with your management team to clearly identify learning objectives and to develop engaging learning models and resources. Our support extends across strategy, content, learning materials, business systems and learning delivery.
