The Banff Centre Strategic Plan (2007)
TCI participated in a project with Joan Johnston & Associates that developed a strategic plan for the Banff Centre. The plan involved extensive consultation with Board members and key staff, as well as a benchmarking assessment of other arts-related organizations in terms of how they were responding to market demands and financial challenges. The plan developed was accepted by the Board and is being used as the basis for the development of the institution.
Director’s Guild of Canada Strategic Plan (2008)
With Joan Johnston & Associates, TCI participated in the development of a strategic plan for the Director’s Guild of Canada. TCI’s role was to undertake an intensive survey of members (at all levels in the organization) and to identify members’ concerns and perception of opportunity for the organization.
City of Kitchener Community Investment Strategy (2009)
We worked closely with City of Kitchener staff in the development of a community investment strategy, which basically was to develop a new policy for the City governing how and why it allocated public monies to community organizations. The approach re-vamped the applications process, and developed consistent, transparent, objective and measurable criteria that determined who got funded and why. The basic philosophy underlying this process was to look at the return to the community, in primarily non-financial ways, for funds invested in the groups’ operations. This approach fundamentally changed how the City allocated community funds.
Western Canada Aviation Museum Expansion Study (2009)
Working with Reich + Petch architects, we undertook an expansion study for the Western Canada Aviation Museum in Winnipeg, Manitoba. The intention was for the new museum operation to move into the old Winnipeg airport facility, once the airport moved into a new terminal that was being constructed. However, due to economic recession, and various other factors affecting the availability of the old terminal building (for which no use has yet been found), the plan was not realized.
