We wanted to share a note of gratitude to those who have joined us in the MORE Alumni Evaluation Network on LinkedIn. With the Fall 2020 cohort underway, and MORE’s first ever fully virtual cohort, we are extra appreciative of this online space to share resources and connect to support each other in our evaluation efforts.
So far this month we’ve shared a Sharp Insight survey development cheat sheet, tips on SMARTIE indicators, and some virtual evaluation consideration. For a little added fun, we included Sharp Insight’s newest (and first!) online quiz, Name That Election Chart!

Culture does indeed eat Strategy for breakfast. Buy why? And what does it take to ensure great Strategy ideas aren’t stymied by counter-Culture forces?
This exploratory session, looks at how values, beliefs, and organizational assumptions (aka Culture Components) shape the outcomes and practices within an organization; how strategy execution is impacted by those Culture Components; and what it takes to sustain complimentary Culture and Strategy. Building a strong understanding of the role of culture allows us to harness it and ensure that our organizations are designed to effectively advance the benefits we hope to see in our communities.
