IDM can assist you in inventorying the community and economic development programming provided by multiple development groups and organizations. This assessment determines overlapping functions or beneficiaries, duplications of similar-purpose programming and gaps in needed programs and projects. IDM then provides your community with recommendations and next steps for enhancing cooperation and collaboration among your development entities, such as chambers, economic development organizations and main street organizations.

IDM will also aide your organization’s board of directors (and staff) with an executive director search and selection process. Together, IDM and your leadership will develop the selection criteria simplifying the hiring process.  IDM also provides a proposed job description and useful tools to manage the search efforts, and at your request, manage the entire search and selection process. This allows your leadership to concentrate on making the “right” hiring decision.

Raise your fundraising efforts by having IDM help build a case to support your efforts, train the volunteers who will make the calls, and create the materials necessary for a successful campaign.
