structural audit
Explanation:
Q. What is a structural audit?
We all understand the need for a financial audit – a professional CPA who examines the accounting procedures, the controls, the finances of the board/association and its fiscal strength.
In the same way we need a structural audit to review the organizational strength, the governance, the facilities, technology, the staffing, the services and the communications with the members.
A structural audit is a top to bottom review of an organization, looking at everything from the governance of the association to its ability to best serve the member needs in a rapidly changing real estate environment. The structural audit is designed to turn the organization inside out and measure it against similar sized organizations that are ranked as ‘best’ in their category.
