My good friend, Carter McNamara, the force behind the "Free Management Library," has a full array of "Evaluation Activities in Organizations on his website at:
http://www.managementhelp.org/evaluatn/evaluatn.htm
It appears you are looking for assessment tools for more of an approach to overall management and organization. For what it is worth, I have two items on my website which deal with assessments of the Board and Development staff when it comes to fund-raising.
--- Development Department Staff/Department Assessment
http://www.raise-funds.com/exhibits/exhibit43.html
http://www.raise-funds.com/exhibits/exhibit43.pdf
When it comes to the Board Members' self-evaluation, the following self-assessment checklist is suggested regarding how each member of a non-profit organization’s board of trustees could privately and confidentially perform a useful and instructive assessment of their respective governance activities and objectives. This trustee self-assessment process features trustee-responsibility affirmations which could be an important way for the trustee to see where major strengths and major weaknesses are to be found, thus being in a better position to address and correct where there are deficiencies.
(Score 1-5 with 5 the highest score)
As a Trustee of (name of organization), I do:
___ Actively participate in carrying out the organization’s mission.
___ Attend trustees’ meetings and initiate and participate in discussions.
___ Provide leadership and involvement to at least one standing committee (development, finance, marketing, nominating, etc.), and attend its meetings and take part in its activities.
___ Contribute funds for annual operations and special programs with commitments perceived to be at or near the top of my capability to give.
___ Support the fund-raising programs and initiatives with as much one-to-one solicitation activity as possible.
___ Prioritize my organization as highly as possible to my memberships in other non-profit organizations.
___ Initiate other helpful advice and counsel to help meet and exceed my organization’s objectives and goals.
___ Promote and present a positive endorsement and attitude to the community-at-large regarding my organization.
___ Serve, knowing that I have the prime responsibility for contributing and raising funds since those responsibilities cannot, and should not, be the responsibility of the organization’s staff.
Maybe some of this will help.
Best wishes,
Tony
