KA engagement
Aligning priorities for a youth mental health charity
Research and an interactive strategy day helped a youth mental health charity reassess its priorities, align its leaders and focus partnership discussions.
THE CASE
What should the organisation prioritise next, and how could its leaders reach a shared view on where to focus their efforts?
The context
A charity was demonstrating a new model of youth mental healthcare. Having delivered a number of important milestones, the organisation wanted to reassess its priorities for the next period and build alignment across its leadership.
Our contribution
KA prepared and facilitated an interactive strategy day, supported by research and emerging strategic priorities. Preparation mapped the youth mental health provider landscape to clarify the organisation’s distinctive role and focus potential partnership discussions. Evidence on its model of care, service quality, reported outcomes and community value helped articulate its contribution. A gallery walk of milestones and sector insights, structured breakouts, reflection and prioritisation helped leaders examine service focus, partnerships, stakeholder engagement and the capabilities needed to deliver.
What the work provided
A clearer basis for the next decision
A clearer strategic agenda and a shared basis for aligning on priorities for the next period, supported by more focused partnership discussions and a stronger articulation of the organisation’s quality and value.
