Mergers

We can offer your organisation the opportunity to thoroughly explore the concept of merger.  Mergers are not just about what happens tomorrow, they are about a much longer term vision that two organisations can have about delivering world class services for their users, within a more effective and efficient organisation.  They are also about eliminating some of the confusion that arises in both the general public and the user, when there are a number of similar charities claiming to be providing the same services. 

Organisational Visioning

You may not wish to consider merger for your Third Sector organisation but may welcome the opportunity to really explore its future, and the visions of its stakeholders, to arrive at a consensus vision for its future.  We can help facilitate this process through structured interviews with all those involved, as well as focus group work and any technical, logistical exercises that need to be undertaken.

Employer/Employee Relations

Historically, some organisations in the Third Sector have been afraid of union recognition.  Don set up one of the first effective union/staff consultation forums between the former MSF and Unison, and the charity of which he was CEO.  He believes that this became a creative process adding value to the organisation as a whole, and to its personnel management particularly.  Don is able to offer consultation to organisations wishing to develop this area of their personnel and management function.
