Massachusetts Cultural Council Organizational Assessment Tool

While no single tool is applicable to all organizations or situations, we hope that most cultural groups will find something worthwhile here. You might find this tool useful in some of the following wasy:

For larger organizations, the regular distribution of this evaluation to key staff, board members and volunteers is a springboard for internal communication about problem areas, or to identify places where you’re doing a good job.

For organizations with limited staffing, this assessment provides a good way to identify the skills needed as you focus on board development and recruitment.

For newer organizations, this tool can help forecast future staffing, technology or development needs.

For organizations in leadership or other transition, this evaluation tool may help clarify areas of needed growth and attention before a search begins.

You may access the tool at the website of the Massachusetts Cultural Council.
