The ViStA Strategic management for nonprofit organizations Framework includes four stages:
1. Strategic evaluation
2. Strategy development
3. Strategy implementation
4. Performance management
The central vertical section of the ViStA Strategic management for nonprofit organizations Framework focuses on the three intra-organizational pillars of nonprofit management: system, structure and strategy.
The horizontal aspect of the ViStA Strategic management for nonprofit organizations Framework addresses external factor including stakeholders and strategic partners and impact as an outcome and value proposition of the nonprofit organization to the beneficiaries.
The ViStA Framework is composed of several tools for various purposes. One of the models we are planning to use in this project is called the Balance Model. Figure 2 shows that it uses Quality and SABLE2 as two dimensions of strategic planning and implementation.
