The document outlines a generic model for multi-stakeholder processes with 4 phases: 1) initiating, 2) adaptive planning, 3) collaborative action, and 4) reflexive monitoring. Each phase contains key steps and considerations for establishing an effective multi-stakeholder process, including clarifying goals, analyzing stakeholders and issues, developing shared visions and strategies, implementing plans of action, and continuously learning and adapting through monitoring and evaluation. The model emphasizes building understanding between stakeholders, strategic decision-making, maintaining commitment through communication and acknowledgment, and creating a culture of learning from both successes and failures.

If we start with the assumption that — in order to improve our social sector as a whole — those who do the work to strengthen our communities (the nonprofits) are equally as critical as those responsible for providing the resources for the work to get done (the foundations), then why wouldn’t we expect all social sector actors to build their capacity? How do we know when our grantees and our foundations are becoming more effective and impactful as a result of our capacity investments, organizational development efforts and technical assistance? What does a high performing organization or foundation look like? And can we measure that?
This presentation, provided during the Grantmakers for Effective Organizations 2016 National Conference in Minneapolis, reviews and demonstrates existing resources for assessing nonprofit and foundation capacity and effectiveness. Speakers introduced the pros and cons of a variety of rubrics in use in the field and offered guidance on how funders decide on the right fit for the desired purpose. Grantmaker peers also shared how they used different frameworks and tools to assess individual nonprofits and grantee cohorts. Session participants left with increased awareness of the importance of the facilitator’s role in interpreting data gleaned from assessments and of the data collection methods most appropriate for their organization.

The strategic planning process requires effective communication and clear thinking. Gathering and analyzing data from inside and outside of an organization – and subsequently turning those data into information – requires clear and concise communication between all of the involved parties. Likewise, taking the acquired information and developing an understanding of it such that appropriate strategies can be developed and actions taken requires extreme clarity of thought. The best way to synthesize data into information and information into strategy is by thinking and communicating visually during the planning process.

Module 1 Overview
The purpose, function, and application of strategic planning in health care administration is studied. Content includes strategic planning, situational analysis, strategy formulation, action planning, and metrics. Leader qualities are used in this module to effectively identify strategic issues, develop a team, and develop a plan of action for overall improvement. Organizational behavior is examined to view its impact on organization vision/mission, organizational goals, organizational communication, and the diverse environment of professionals in health care organizations.
Strategic planning models can offer a range of opportunities to an organization. The National Criminal Justice Association (2017) recommends the following strategic planning models:
Model One: The Basics
Organizations that are small, busy, and have not done much strategic planning before might want to start with this approach. Top-level management often carries out planning in this model rather than using a community-based approach. Basic strategic planning includes:
1. Create a mission statement. A mission statement describes why the organization exists (i.e., identifies its basic purpose). The statement should address both the types of communities or audience that the organization serves, and the services and products it will provide. The top-level management will generally develop the mission statement. The statement will change somewhat over the years.
2. Select the organization’s intermediate goals. Goals are general statements about what needs to be accomplished to meet the purpose or mission and address major issues.
3. Identify approaches or strategies to reach each goal. Strategies are often what change most as the organization eventually conducts more robust strategic planning, particularly as external and internal environments are examined more closely.
4. Identify action plans to implement each strategy. Action plans list the steps that each major function (for example, a department or agency) must take to ensure that it is effectively implementing a strategy. Objectives should be clear enough to be assessed if they have been met. Ideally, top management will develop committees, each with their own work or set of objectives.
5. Monitor and update the plan. Planners regularly monitor progress towards goals and whether action plans are being implemented. Perhaps the most important indicator of success is positive feedback from customers.
6. Note that organizations may want to extend step 3 by identifying additional goals that help develop central operations or administration (e.g., implementing a new goal that strengthens financial management).
Model Two: Issue- or Goal-Based Strategic Planning
Organizations that begin with basic planning often evolve toward this more comprehensive and effective approach. This model will be the focus of recommendations for use as the preferred process in community-based planning.

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

MeTA MSP workshop: The Generic Multi Stakeholder Process Model
1. The Generic
Multi Stakeholder Process
Model (4.a)
A checklist to identify gaps in the planning or implementation
of Multi stakeholder processes
2. Phase 1. Initiating
1. Clarify the reasons for an MSP
2. Undertake initial situation analysis
(stakeholders, issues, institutions, power and politics)
3. Establish an interim steering body
4. Build stakeholder support
5. Establish the scope, mandate and stakeholder expectations
6. Outline the process, time frame, institutional requirements and resources
needs
Throughout: learning – monitoring and adapting
1. Clarify the reasons for an MSP
Examining why a particular group of stakeholders wants to engage in some form
of MSP is a critical first step. It is important to ask:
What are the motivating factors?
What drives people? What are their major concerns?
How will an MSP enhance what is already being done?
Is it worth the effort?
2. Undertake initial situation analysis
(stakeholders, issues, institutions, power and politics)
Determine what processes have been used previously in your region (e.g. to
gain community input). Which ones were successful?
In many areas, considerable discussion, work, trials, consultation, mapping,
review, data gathering and analysis have already been done: decide which bits
are critical for you.
Identify the gaps in data/information. Determine what else you need and who
has responsibility for getting it.
Learn from history locally, regionally, your region, other places.
It is important to become familiar with various relevant policies, strategies
programs and projects. Often these are informed by trends and research
which you may not have access to.
Develop a summary of the situation and communicate this with the key
stakeholders. This will assist stakeholders to improve their awareness of the
context.
Map the stakeholders.
Determine which are key/critical to the success of your MSP and/or are
working to achieve similar outcomes. Determine how best to enroll them,
influence them and work with them.
The Generic Multi Stakeholder Process Model Page 2
3. 3. Establish an interim steering body
What type of body is appropriate? Don’t confuse an ‘advisory body’ with a
‘management body’ Ask around — study other MSPs. See what structure best
suits your needs and focus. Consider how a structure can be modified to best
suit your needs.
Clearly determine and communicate the responsibility, role and expected life of
the interim steering body.
4. Build stakeholder support
Cast your net wide (residents, community groups, grower/industry groups,
local government, regional bodies, enterprise centres, economic think tanks,
business, corporate).
Publicize the intent of the MSP. Actively and consistently welcome contributions
and comment.
Involve the right level. Insure that the people involved are at the right level to
commit their organisation.
Organise true participation. Listen to stakeholders. Take notice. Demonstrate
that you have listened and incorporated their concerns, understandings and
suggestions.
Consider carefully the influence or independence of stakeholders and look also
outside the region.
5. Establish the scope, mandate and stakeholder expectations
With key relevant stakeholders it is important to reach consensus early on
about the boundaries of the MSP. It is easy for the scope of the MSP to
become so wide that little can be achieved.
It is also very important to understand the mandate for the MSP. Is the MSP
officially sanctioned by government? Are different stakeholder groups
supportive of the idea? Do some groups see the process as legitimate and
other not?
6. Outline the process, time frame, institutional requirements and
resources needs
MSPs require time and resources. Based on an outline of the process and
institutional needs the required resources and their availability needs to be
carefully assessed. Items to consider include:
Employment of professional facilitation
Time input of steering committee
Costs of hosting workshops and meetings
Background work to be done by different stakeholder groups
Costs involved in setting up a web site and producing publicity materials
Research and investigation costs.
The Generic Multi Stakeholder Process Model Page 3
4. Phase 2. Adaptive Planning
1. Build stakeholders understanding of each other’s values, motivations,
concerns and interests
2. Generate visions for the future (Theories of change)
3. Identify issues, problems and opportunities
4. Examine future scenarios and feasible options
5. Make decisions and agree on key strategies
6. Set objectives and identify actions, timeframes and responsibilities
7. Document and communicate planning outcomes
Throughout: learning – monitoring and adapting
Planning strategically – basic questions
Where are we now?
Situation analysis: institutions (incl values), stakeholders, problems, issues but
also existing paradigms, trends, etc
Where do we want to be?
Visioning a preferred future; articulating purpose of the MSP; agreeing on core
principles; developing goals and objectives .
How do we get there?
Developing action plans.
How do we know what has been achieved?
Agreeing on suitable performance indicators and a monitoring system.
How do we adapt?
Thinking about how the MSP can cyclically improve, reassess and adapt.
Background 1: Power – knowledge and identity

Multi-stakeholder space/process
The Generic Multi Stakeholder Process Model Page 4
5. Background 2: Moving Through the Process
1. Build stakeholders understanding of each other’s values, motivations,
concerns and interests
Different stakeholders have different backgrounds and aspirations.
Understanding and accepting ‘where people are coming from’ is crucial, eg for
decision making.
Understanding paradigms, values, that influence people’s behavior
Agreeing on principles for the MSP
Stakeholder analysis and shared planning can assist.
2. Generate visions for the future
Having well developed and widely shared long term visions is critical for
providing a common focus and ensuring that you are ‘pulling and pushing in the
same direction’.
"Take the time to set a clear vision but maintain enough flexibility to take
advantage of opportunities as they present themselves."
"It is equally important to keep the vision fluid. Visions are always evolving; they
are an expression of our hearts’ desire. As we work toward our vision, we learn
more about ourselves (individually and as an organisation) and other
possibilities become clearer."
The Generic Multi Stakeholder Process Model Page 5
6. 3. Identify issues, problems, and opportunities
Taking the time to identify key issues and opportunities enables critical thinking
about both the obstacles you will have to negotiate and the opportunities you
can grap to better reach your vision.
Thorough analysis of problems, issues, trends, opportunities, threats
4. Examine future scenarios and feasible options
Ensuring your decisions are well informed by both the earlier information
gathering and analysis as well as by the breadth of contributors.
This improves the quality of your decisions and the confidence you can have in
them.
You will also be in a better position to clearly and rationally discuss your
initiative.
Eg scenario planning.
5. Make decisions and agree on key strategies
Ensure a good process for (shared) decision making:
Agree on selection criteria for deciding on strategies
Involve key stakeholders in reflection on findings and decision making
Remember differences in power (within and between stakeholder groups) and
how these can be overcome
6. Set objectives and identify actions, timeframes and responsibilities
Once decisions have been made about key strategies and directions the next
step is to establish clear objectives, actions and responsibilities in a time
frame.
Strategic and operational planning
7. Document and communicate planning outcomes
Having a clear, concise, easy to read document of what you want to achieve
and how in broad terms you are going to go about this enables you to get on
with the next stages of ‘implementing and managing’.
It also enables you to communicate intentions to all the stakeholders and
organisations with which you wish to work.
Articulate: the underlying values and motivations which inform the vision; the
vision; the issues and opportunities (detailing how analysis of information has
supported them); and decisions made about the directions or strategies to be
undertaken to reach the vision, including how you will keep people informed and
manage feedback.
Use different communication methods: written, oral, visual
The Generic Multi Stakeholder Process Model Page 6
7. Phase 3. Collaborative Action
1. Develop integrated initiatives and detailed action plans
2. Secure resources and technical support
3. Develop capacity of stakeholders
4. Establish required management structures and procedures
5. Manage the implementation process
6. Maintain stakeholder commitment
Throughout: learning – monitoring and adapting
1. Develop integrated initiatives and detailed action plans
Projects need to be well planned and well developed. Seek the assistance of
specialists outside your group.
Determine and then illustrate how the projects are interlinked in achieving the
strategy (remember the community, economy and environment foci).
Reflect the changes in your operating conditions. Link into relevant aspects of
regional/State/Commonwealth strategies and policies (e.g. regional
catchments strategies, State business incentive programs, national
telecommunications initiatives): often they are well informed and/or can bring
resources to your region.
Constantly check that actions are indeed necessary; unnecessary actions are
an easy way to burn out resources and people without achieving desired
results.
Matching projects with a mentor, specialist or reference group can assist
2. Secure resources and technical support
Secure previously made offers of finance, materials, information and skills —
return with your plan and refined thinking.
When applying for grants or sponsorship, be aware that whilst some are set,
with little flexibility, there may be opportunities to negotiate independently for a
partnership that better fits your plans.
Target and organise your lobbying who can you influence and what will it take?
Which members of your MSP have significant influence in the business sector,
government spheres etc?
Explore sponsorship both within and outside the region.
Develop a skills inventory so you can match up the skills you already have and
highlight skills you need to ‘rope in’, develop and/or pay for. Determine the
costs involved.
Ensure proper and transparent process is followed in the appointments of
volunteer and paid staff.
The Generic Multi Stakeholder Process Model Page 7
8. 3. Develop capacity of stakeholders
Teams need all types of people. Take time to value the differences and
acknowledge the contributions to be made.
Develop a skills inventory — what is required to get the job done, and what are
the skills of the people involved? and determine where these are
complementary.
Determine the training and development required.
The rotation of board/committee members is healthy and enables individuals to
develop their capabilities in a supportive environment.
Sharing the work, often with a guide or mentor, is a practical and powerful way
to foster development.
Investigate the various training and development programs (e.g. local
government/landcare facilitation/development commission) — make contact
with these to see how you can participate or whether they can prepare and
deliver a program for you.
Approach government programs and business sponsors for resources to
develop and deliver programs.
4. Establish required management structures and procedures and
5. manage the implementation process
Remember that you spent some time assessing potential organisation
structures in the ‘setting up’ component; reflect on those assessments now.
Clarify roles and ensure that there is a clear understanding by all members and
the wider community/stakeholders.
Ensure the community is kept informed of how and why the structure was
chosen and what to expect.
Ensure that all the responsibilities neither fall on just a few nor are actively
acquired by just a few.
Ensure that the structure chosen supports people ‘doing’ the associated
projects.
6. Maintain stakeholder commitment
Ensure that you don’t just ‘expect’.
Determine how people like to be rewarded/acknowledged and thus become
more effective.
Give feedback and ask for feedback then make the necessary modifications
don’t ignore it.
Keep people informed as to how the decisions are being made and what
progress is being made (e.g. open days, radio, media releases) — also
continue to provide opportunities for their involvement.
Celebrate the achievements, small and big gaining funding for a small project;
getting people to the open day; significant contributions; a visit from a
neighboring region or interstate tour; recruiting of new staff; the quarterly
The Generic Multi Stakeholder Process Model Page 8
9. meeting.
Combine training and personal/professional development with acknowledgment
and fun. For example: organise inter regional and interstate tours, hold a
training session with partners in one of the region’s holiday spots, or have a
barbecue at the end of the meeting.
Ensure there is adequate support and acknowledgment for honorary
contributors
The Generic Multi Stakeholder Process Model Page 9
10. Phase 4 – Reflexive Monitoring
1. Create a learning culture and environment
2. Define success criteria (performance questions and indicators)
3. Develop and implement monitoring mechanisms
4. Review and evaluate progress and identify lessons
5. Feed lessons learned back into strategies and implementation procedures

Background 2: Reflective learning Activities
The Generic Multi Stakeholder Process Model Page 10
11. Background 3: MSP Learning Moments
1. Create a learning culture and environment
Critical reflection on both successes and failures is crucial in adapting our
vision and actions to our environment and challenges. This means regularly
asking: what happened? Why? So what? Now what?
Some guidelines:
Individuals feel that their ideas and suggestions are valued
Mistakes and failures are considered important by everyone for learning and not
as shameful
All the key groups involved in project implementation communicate openly and
regularly
Project implementers, including primary stakeholders, regularly and informally
discuss project progress, relationships and how to improve actions
Managers listen carefully to others and consciously seek solutions together
During regular meetings and workshops, time is set aside for discussing
mistakes and learning lessons
2. Define success criteria (performance questions and indicators)
Agree with stakeholders on what is necessary (and not nice) to know for
decision making
Performance/evaluation questions: broad questions that help us to focus on our
key information needs. Eg ‘to what extent has our MSP influenced policy
makers? Why/not?
Indicators: variables that indicate which data we need to look for in order to
answer the key questions. Eg ‘Types of changes initiated by policy makers who
attended advocacy meetings’
The Generic Multi Stakeholder Process Model Page 11
12. 3. Develop and implement monitoring mechanisms
Develop a shared strategy and action plan for:
Data collection and processing
Analysis, critical reflection & decision making
Communication & reporting
Capacities and conditions:
•human capacities
•incentives for M&E
•MIS
•Structures & processes
•financial resources
4. Review and evaluate progress and identify lessons
Remember the key evaluation questions:
Impact
Relevance
Sustainability
Effectiveness
Efficiency
Generate and document lessons learned:
Theme of ‘lessons learned’.
What was our original understanding or assumptions?
What is our revised understanding or assumptions?
One or two examples that substantiate the new understanding.
How the project came to this insight.
5. Feed lessons learned back into strategies and implementation
procedures
Don’t just limit ‘adapting/changing’ to projects. From your now better informed
position, make the necessary changes to all aspects of your initiative, including
process, structure, management, reporting and communicating.
Remember to ‘tell the story’ of how you have adapted or are encouraging
people to adapt.
Feed the learnings back into practices you are currently undertaking now or
may undertake in the future.
Share the learnings on both the fine tunings you are making to your
initiative/projects and the actual process of monitoring and evaluation.
