Three Conditions for Change

1) Dissatisfaction with the status quo:
Identify it, verbalize it, quantify it, support it
Are staff, boards, committees, volunteers and participants reflective of your community's demographics?
Do people from diverse backgrounds, religions, education levels, sexual orientations, etc. feel comfortable and valued in our organization?
Has your organization adapted to community or customer needs and priorities?

2) Vision of where we need to go:
Create it, clarify it, verbalize it, justify it
