Tough financial situations demand critical strategic decisions, especially for human service organizations facing burgeoning need, shrinking funding and diverse options with limited assessment time.

• Creating permission to talk about the financial elephants you know are in the room
• Setting the stage for negotiations that include saying 'no' to damaging alliances, non-core services, and funding sources
• Establishing strategic business structures to guide key decisions and assess core services
