The most protracted, complex and pressing problems we have in the world today need innovative solutions, sustained over time. That does not match a donor template. Most organisations tackling these problems need a better business model.
Metaphoric Silos — since each employee, division or department interacts primarily within their specific “grain” silo rather than with other groups across the organization — need to be broken down to increase productivity and profitability. Mark Johnson of B2B CFO collaborates with Mary Henry of HR on Demand to produce the PowerPoint and lecture.

2. Evolving development landscape
Empowered communities, an enlightened civil society and path-breaking
legislations (such as the Right to Education Act, Right to Information Act, the
Companies Act, 2013, etc.) in India are increasingly leading to accountancy
and transparency assuming centre stage in most of the recent development
discussions and debates. In addition, the gradual shift in focus of donors
towards sustainability supports the general consensus that development funds
now need to be properly accounted for, efficiently used and optimally deployed
in order to help generate maximum ‘value for money’.
Development sector institutions are now ready to transform themselves into
professionally-managed organisations so as to effectively manage their risks.
This has led to an increased demand for technical assistance to develop strong
governance and oversight mechanisms (and intrinsic capacities), institute
processes for monitoring and evaluation as well as build appropriate control
systems to deal with any instances of fraud, prevent misappropriation of funds,
ensure compliance, etc.
With development spending (by the state, corporates or donors) set to increase
exponentially, funders as well as development institutions shall require
assistance to adequately manage their risk management concerns in order to
help ensure the efficiency and effectiveness of service delivery on the ground.
Increasing social awareness
and enlightened communities
are forcing corporates as well
as donors to commit more, and
behave in an accountable and responsible manner.
Charitable foundations are increasing their focus
on efficiency and effectiveness of delivery, and are
more focussed on sustainability.
Home-grown donors are increasingly emphasising
‘value for money’ and are more outcome driven.
3. A wide spectrum of risk management
solutions
Aspects such as ‘value for money’, ‘increased accountability’ and ‘enhanced
transparency’ have obvious implications on genuine outcomes and impact.
However, they also necessitate the following:
• Robust and sound methodologies to establish the ‘integrity’ of
development fund recipients (NGOs)
• Development of tools and frameworks that allow sponsors or funders to
assess the ‘effectiveness’ and ‘efficiency’ of their funded interventions
• Clearly articulated guidelines and policy frameworks that ensure a
cohesive alignment and understanding of the strategy from the ‘board’ to
the ‘executive’ level and then right down to the ‘implementation team’
• Mechanisms (of checks and balances) to be put in place to help reduce
instances of ‘fraud’ and ‘corruption’
• Increased and continuous vigilance for improved ‘corporate governance’
