Program Strategy & Design
Blueprint advises clients on all aspects of program development and grantmaking. In our strategy practice area, we facilitate conversations to address key questions at these levels:
Vision - What change do you want to bring about?
Strategy - What are the best pathways to achieve the desired change?
Operations - How can you optimally put strategies into practice?
Learning - How can you learn from your (and others’) experiences so that you can keep moving in the right direction?
Our strategic planning and program design work is complemented by perspectives from our two other practice areas: organizational learning and evaluation and philanthropic industry analysis. We are very interested in projects that contribute new knowledge to the field of philanthropy, including design of innovative program models and vehicles to align philanthropic activities.
Specific services include:
- Values clarification
- Goal identification
- Strategy development & operational planning
- Situation analysis, environmental scans, & programmatic needs assessment
- Program design
