"Failing to Plan is Planning to Fail"
"A ship without a course will soon run aground or sink. Your Board of Directors sets the course, and your Executive Director captains the ship."
If your organization or association is operating without a current, functional and relevant Strategic Plan, it is only a matter of time before chaos breaks out. It is not a matter of if, but when.
We have over 25 years of experience in assisting non-profits and associations develop Strategic Plans . We are happy to meet with you and review your current situation and discuss what options would best fit your organization. Our initial consultation is absolutely FREE.
“The problem with companies, corporations, industries, and the associations that represent them, is that they have become reactive to government regulations rather than proactive. These entities need to be the ones driving public policies that benefit their interests. We are one of the few Government Relations firms in the country that can help you create Proactive Government Relations Strategies.”
Rudolph Garza, RLG Associates Founder and CEO
At RLG Associates we don't believe that one size fits all. When we manage a project we do so as if it were our own. We aren't going to take a strategy and just plug in your name.
We will take the time to listen and learn about your project and your concerns and then carefully and methodically go through the process of developing a uniquely tailored Strategy for your specific project.
