6. Enable India is past its emergent stage and is poised for growth. It has expanded,
established functional and program units. While long-term goals have been set and a
strategic plan made, there are clearly multiple ways for Enable India to grow and hence
the launch and growth stage is taken as a reference for organizational structure planning.
It is recommended that a flat organizational structure is adopted by Enable India to
remove hierarchical learning barriers and be nimble to act quickly on actions. The
following structure is a representation of what Enable India can consider.

7. Strategy for implementation
•We are considering 3 major cities in Karnataka
(Bangalore, Mysore and Mangalore) initially since our
NGO is based on Karnataka. So we need to follow divide
and conquer strategy .
•Having these cities in mind, we will consider the
surrounding towns/villages where we can provide our
service.
•In the towns considered, we will have to have tie-ups
with other NGO’s which are into skill & Development.
They would be willing to join us since they are also
benefited by our service.
Training Implementation :
Step 1 :- Indentify and get the count of the number of physically challenged people in a
location. This will enable us to assess the resource allocation at a particular locality.
8. Strategy for implementation (cntd..)
Step 2 :- Segment the candidates into different categories of disability
Step 3:- Note down all the set of functional training which can be given to the
candidates.
Step 4:- Get the head count of the people who are willing to help us for the reason . Also categories
as to what kind of impaired candidates they are interested in training.
Step 5 :- Identify the adjacent towns they are willing to spend during week end and help the
candidates.
Step 6:- Identify the technical training required for the physically impaired and assess the time
required for that class of candidates.
Step 7 :- Prepare an matrix specifying the number of physically challanged, category of
impairment, training required and the number of hours of training required.
Step 8 :- Share the matrix prepared with the volunteers who are interested in training. Also let
them know as what is expected from them.
Step 9 :- At the end , prepare one more matrix including resource allocation to the previously
prepared matrix
9. Strategy for placement/ entrepreneurship
Step 1 :- Create an account in linbkedin / facebook when they are in the campus .
Include them in our NGO group. So that they will be associated with us and future
correspondence will not be an issue.
Step 2 :- Contacting the alumns , ask their linkedin / facebook id and ask them to join
our group. So that further correspondence will not be an issue.
Step 3:- Request the alumns to train our candidates at the location of their
convenience.
Step 4 :- Prepare a list of all trained candidates in our program. Also include what
training they got.
Step 5 :- Assess their skills by conducting a test and check if they are sufficiently
skilled to start their own business.
Step 6 :- Once they are found suitable, we can contact B-Schools / corporates to help
them with the business model and how they need to start the business.
Step 7 :- With the plan in hand, we can get guidance from corporates on the estimate
for the business and arrande for funds (This is discussed in the document sent over
email.)
