Managing Emerging Challenges

Crisis Management

In crisis? More nonprofits are turning to DESC for assistance in managing crisis. While these contacts are often triggered by the economic downturn, other factors are also at play. Inadequate leadership, poor planning, ineffective communication, poor public relations and ineffectual decision-making are just a few of the management issues that can put an organization at risk.

Whatever the crisis, DESC has a coping mechanism - our volunteer consultants are here to help nonprofits respond to unpredicted threats and surprises.

DESC's Crisis Management services begin with an experienced consultant who meets with you to evaluate the situation and identify the near-term actions that can help your organization.

Drawn from management tools provided by DESC these actions might include assistance in the areas of short-term and strategic planning, strategic alliances, leadership development, budget changes and executive coaching.

DESC can help your organization become more resourceful in uncertain times.
