CASE Seeks Consultant for Development of Global Social Impact CEO Survey

How do social entrepreneurs leap the chasm from idea to sustainable impact at scale?


That’s been the question we’ve been obsessed with since the start of CASE. We know that some social ventures are able to achieve dramatic scaling of their impact but for most organizations the impact they generate is small in relation to the scale of the problems they aim to address.
To help uncover why some organizations are more successful at scaling their impact than others, as well as identifying other trends in the social impact field, CASE is developing the first ever Global Social Impact CEO Survey.


What is the Global Social Impact CEO Survey? This groundbreaking study will create a longitudinal study of the experiences and learnings of social impact leaders at the CEO level, including nonprofit and for-profit social ventures and impact investors. The resulting reports and tools will provide a leadership lens on trends, perceptions, and predictions about achieving sustainable impact at scale.


CASE is seeking a consultant and/or consulting team to partner with us in designing our strategy for implementing the Global Social Impact CEO Survey. Proposals must show knowledge of the global social impact sector trends, latest research, and key players. Ideal candidates will also have prior successful experience in large-scale, national survey work.


We’re looking for a consultant that will provide us with a landscape analysis for the survey and develop 2-3 models for survey modeling and implementation. Additionally, we may extend the work to the survey design and survey execution and analysis phases of the Global Social Impact CEO Survey depending on expertise level and proposed budget.

Last year, we announced our work on Smart Impact Capital, a cutting edge concept for preparing social impact entrepreneurs for raising the right kind of capital for their ventures.

In August, we unveiled the first three modules in the series after months of beta testing and fine tuning. The response to those first three modules has been staggering; this is a tool that the social impact space needs.

Now we need your help. As the Smart Impact Capital project has grown, we have the need for a talented writer with experience in the impact investing space to work with us on completing the final modules in the series.

We’re looking for someone that can take big, often complicated ideas and translate them into accessible, practical language that any busy entrepreneur can readily digest in our bite-sized lessons. What makes Smart Impact Capital so unique is the practitioner-friendly approach that we take on walking entrepreneurs through the capital raising process and that will be a critical element to the writing you will be doing for the modules.
​
Does this sound like you? Then we encourage you to take a look at the full RFP here. We anticipate the work taking 10-20 hours/week and to be completed by June 2017. RFP applications are due on December 12th.
