    Employee Wellbeing Survey for Nonprofit Organizations

    A 12-question staff survey template for nonprofit teams that takes about 5 minutes to complete. It covers retention, workload and boundaries, burnout risk, purpose, psychological safety, manager and team support, pay fairness and organisational care, plus 1 open question. Responses are anonymous. Leaders run it twice a year, or quarterly in periods of change, then pick 1 or 2 actions and report back to staff within 2 weeks.

    Creating the COO Position

    A free Bridgespan article on when and why nonprofits add a chief operating officer, drawn from a survey of COOs and interviews with COOs and executive directors. It covers the usual triggers, such as a chief executive stretched by a growing staff or a growth plan to deliver, the worries executive directors have about sharing control, and how organisations managed the transition. It links to Bridgespan's wider set of COO resources, including sample job descriptions.
