Nonprofit Sustainability & The Matrix Map:

An engaging, easy-to-use tool for visualizing an organization’s business model, the Matrix Map is the foundation of the sustainability framework introduced in Nonprofit Sustainability: Making Strategic Decisions for Financial Viability co-authored by Spectrum’s Steve Zimmerman with Jeanne Bell of CompassPoint and Jan Masaoka of Blue Avocado. The Matrix Map showcases the current impact and financial performance of core activities and provides guidance on how leaders can make strategic decisions to strengthen their business model and increase sustainability.
