To equip ombuds offices with guidance, research tools, and training to measure and present effectiveness of their programs relevant to the stakeholder’s goals, in alignment with their organization's mission and values.
About the Project
The Ombuds Effectiveness team has been researching and gathering information on how ombuds share meaningful insight with their organizations. What do their reporting documents, brochures, surveys, and data look like? The goal is to bring all of this knowledge together and a training and a comprehensive toolkit to share with members. Meet the team below and learn more by watching the #GoodDayIOA interview with Jenn Mahony.
Goals of the Project:
Goal #1 of this project is to gather resources such as articles, webinars, whitepapers, reports, case-law, and any other type of resource that may help us answer these questions. Michael Green, Sofia Trelles, Angella J. Wint, and I are working hard to gather resources for this project.
Goal #2 of this project is focused on gathering effectiveness tools. Common examples of tools include annual reports, marketing brochures, surveys, intake forms, reporting templates, and risk and stakeholder engagement frameworks.
Goal #3 in creating training and a comprehensive toolkit.
Ultimate Goal: Creating training and curating tools to equip us with how to feel confident about how we talk about and measure effectiveness.
