Management Improvement Program (MIP)

Management Improvement Program (MIP) is a two-year modular workshop with on-site mentoring support. MIP’s main goal is to equip the leaders of Community-Based Organizations, enabling them to run their organizations effectively for better output, thereby fulfilling the statutory requirements and abiding by the law of the land.

MIP helps to strategize their operations- fulfilling the vision and mission with tangible, sustainable outcomes and impact. It also enables improvement of the work culture and standards. MIP helps leaders to strengthen organizational management by proper governance.

It is a learner-centric platform, where leaders share their experiences and best practices to make the learning effective.

MIP covers 6 core fundamentals of Organizational Development. Each module is customized based on needs. Every module starts by analyzing the training needs through a survey of the organization and inputs are made on various standards and requirements for improvement. The participants developed their own plan of action to meet the required standards and provide quality services. With every workshop, MIP mentors visit the organizations and further help them implement the desired changes by helping them overcome the challenges and barriers. Changes implemented and the impacts made are reported while attending the next module. We have sucessfully completed training for 4 batches.

1st phase from 2014 to 2016, we trained 20 organizations.
2nd phase from 2017-18, we equipped 23 organizations.
3rd phase from 2019-2021, we trained 24 organizations.
