This organizational analysis provides an overview of the Dress for Success San Antonio (DFS San Antonio) nonprofit organization. I will highlight some strengths and challenges, and describe ways that DFS San Antonio can overcome those challenges to further its growth and development. DFS San Antonio is facing two major managerial and operational challenges: (a) lack of sufficient and diverse fundraising income; and (b) inadequate engagement in fundraising activities from the board of directors.

The process of planning involves a combination of forecasting labor needs, comparing these needs to the labor availabilities, and determining where gaps exist. After these gaps are identified, general plans for filling these gaps are enacted” (Kammeyer-Mueller, 2006).

For example, for the instance of Tanglewood, the areas have a normal of 215 representatives for each store for every one of the districts.

He invites fellow leaders to witness the process of leadership development vicariously; revealing both the challenges and victories his church experienced throughout the journey. Wilson illustrates his process in the form of three conversations, each implementing rigorous goals designed to expand the team’s leadership effectiveness and to impact more people. The first conversation concentrates on their honest assessment of the current culture of the leadership team; recognizing their need for personal growth so they become models of effective leadership.

Another useful tactic she uses is very uplifting and motivational words, such as “faithful” and “loving.” It is also demonstrated when she tries to put herself in the shoes of the warrior who could be facing death for their own county.
