Wipfli’s Prime Growth System for nonprofits

Release your organization’s potential to operate in a state of prime

Experience the power of prime with Wipfli’s research-backed approach that is helping nonprofit organizations achieve greater impact, optimize efficiency and strengthen organizational health. Organizations in prime have a powerful vision that interlinks purpose, cause and passion with a leadership team capable of driving results.

We’ve identified seven key components that work together to generate organizational velocity and momentum to free you from traps and drive sustainable success for your mission:
