As we approach the midpoint of 2025, the nonprofit funding landscape is shifting rapidly. Opportunities in mental health, digital transformation, equity, and community innovation are increasing—but only for organizations prepared to act with clarity and purpose.
If your team is feeling stuck or missing out on funding, it’s time to ask:
- Do you have a clear grant calendar?
- Is your strategy aligned with funder priorities?
- Are you leveraging strategic evaluation to refine your grant-readiness?
Strategic Evaluation in Strategic Management:
Your Competitive Advantage
Many organizations assume the issue is a lack of funding. In reality, the problem is often a lack of strategic alignment. This is where strategic evaluation in strategic management becomes vital.
Strategic evaluation is more than reviewing past efforts. It helps nonprofits assess the effectiveness of their current strategies and ensures they’re equipped to adapt to evolving funding priorities. It serves as the final—and arguably most important—step in strategic management, allowing leaders to measure performance, evaluate impact, and reposition their organization for success.
When you know what’s working (and what’s not), you can confidently pursue funding that aligns with your mission and capacity.
Don’t Let 2025 Pass You By
Without a structured process for evaluation, planning, and positioning, even the most promising grant opportunities can be missed.
- No grant calendar
- No alignment strategy
- No capacity to apply = missed funding
At Vectors Group, we use our Executive Strategic Evaluation Process (E-SEP) to help nonprofits unlock clarity, build strategic alignment, and stay grant-ready year-round.
