- Resource Sharing: Resources that support member organizations in becoming better non-profits and more effective at meeting their individual Ds related missions.
- Leadership and Organizational Education: Developing the management, governance, general leadership, and programmatic skills and expertise among the board, staff and key volunteers of members organizations.
- Financial Stability: We operate in a way that builds and maintains our long term fiscal health, through year over year balance sheet growth.
DSAIA sells its core capabilities to DSAs by providing valuable non-profit education experiences and access to a quality self-service resource library. Members received free and significantly discounted access to these services, while non-members can access them on a la carte. These services must be well enough sought after and purchased so that DSAIA continues to grow in financial health.
Positives of Strategy:
- Encourages Membership and Sustained Engagement, While Offering Value to the Entire Ds Movement.
- Encourages the Offering of Premier and Highly Valuable Experiences, Like Conferences.
- Members Have Mediocre History of Accessing Many Services.
- Premier Experiences, Like Conferences, May Be Out of the Price Range of a Large Segment of the Membership.
- Recruitment of Top Notch Contributors a Must.
