Culture Climate Assessment: Non-Profit Edition
A self-guided survey designed specifically for non-profit organizations to better understand staff perceptions, organizational culture, and barriers to equity.
The Nonprofit Edition of our Culture Climate Assessment (CCA-NP) is designed for organizations that want to take the first step in understanding their workplace culture and equity readiness without committing to a full consulting engagement. This is a self-implementation tool, meaning you will lead the process internally, from forming steering committees to securing leadership buy-in and facilitating follow-up conversations.
With this version, you receive a survey tailored to nonprofit settings and a customized analysis with recommendations. This is a “you drive” model; the insights are clear, but the responsibility for using them rests with your team.
The tool can be used as a one-time assessment or revisited as often as you’d like to measure progress against your own benchmarks. While studies consistently show that organizations achieve greater long-term success when assessments are conducted with outside experts rather than led solely by internal staff, this option remains a valuable starting point. It provides nonprofits with a structured framework for identifying growth opportunities, initiating critical conversations, and laying the foundation for a healthier, more equitable culture.
The CCA–NP is best seen as both a launch pad and a mirror: a way to start the work and reflect on where you stand, while leaving the implementation entirely in your hands.
*Live facilitation and in-person professional support are not included; without a consulting partnership, however, many other resources are available to assist you.
