Description:
The capacity to do and use evaluation starts with an organization’s willingness to engage in the process. Are staff motivated to do the evaluation, or do they feel mandated to do so? Are staff able to collaborate on evaluation activities such as creating measurable outcomes or data usage, or do they operate in silo? There are underlying factors that can help or hinder an organization’s ability to engage in evaluation practices. We will explore these issues through real world examples and a concrete process on how you can build a culture of evaluation.
