Overview: Like any relatively new concept, the definition of "organizational effectiveness" (OE) is still in a state of flux. Some people equate the term with technical assistance, management assistance, organizational development, or capacity building. Others use the term to describe the funding of nonprofits general operating expenses. Grant makers working in this area say that organizational effectiveness can include all of these things but is much more. In Minnesota, organizational effectiveness is the focus of a new member network at the Minnesota Council on Foundations, the theme of the Council's annual conference this fall, and a new funding area for some grantmakers. The article presents some characteristics of an effective organization.
