Indicators

This tool is meant to derive the capacity level of agencies in terms of organizational effectiveness. Agencies rate how well they perform or accomplish the indicator statements. The level is quantifiable and could be documented and tracked over time to assess their level of maturity in the various dimensions.

Five dimensions identified for this assessment include:

  1. Organizational Design
  2. Governance and Leadership
  3. Change and Development
  4. Human Resource Management
  5. Financial Management

The tool includes 34 statements on a 5 point scale, on a continuum from not meeting the performance requirement, to exceeding it.

The scale is defined as follows:
