CAPACITY COACHING

What Is "Organizational" Capacity Coaching?

Capacity Coaching is a structured partnership approach that strengthens nonprofit organizations' operational infrastructure, systems, and capabilities. Unlike executive coaching, which focuses on individual leadership development, Capacity Coaching addresses the foundational elements that enable organizations to function effectively and achieve sustainable impact.

Capacity Coaches work directly with leadership teams to assess organizational needs, develop implementation plans, and build essential systems across key operational areas. This collaborative process helps organizations move through developmental stages from emerging to sustainable.
