The Best of Both Worlds

Organizational Management

Professionals with not-for-profits today must handle challenging governmental regulations, interpret tax code and accreditation requirements, and plan strategically. In some ways these processes can mirror the corporate sector - but they are very different, too. Not-for-profits are founded to respond to defined needs, and their staffs are dedicated to these missions - often more than to the business functions of the organization. Not-for-profits also involve volunteers, often in very integral roles, and face a host of challenges unknown in the for-profit sector.

The Alford Group Inc. works only with not-for-profits. The firm's consultants bring the best of business practice to their work, but recognize that not-for-profits may not be accustomed to these methods, and that the methods may not be appropriate for all not-for-profits. Utilizing the best of both worlds, The Alford Group helps not-for-profits build their capacity to succeed in pursuit of their missions - as well as management and other goals.
