Exhibit A
Revised Strategic Planning Proposal - July 31, 2023
Services
I propose providing the following strategic planning process:
Step is Champion - Conduct a Strategic Planning Kickoff Meeting With the DSRAD
Strategic Planning Committee that Will Champion the Process
Step 2: Assess - Conduct an Organizational and Community Assessment
Step 3: Plan - Create a Strategic Plan
Step 4: Execute - Provide Follow-up Support
Step 1 Prepare - Conduct a Strategic Planning Kickoff Meeting with the DSRAD Strategic
Planning Committee that Witt Champion the Process
I would facilitate a two-hour in -person meeting with the DSRAD Strategic Planning
Committee to review the strategic planning process. The primary outcomes of the meeting
would be to:
a. Create an aligned mindset and understanding of what strategic planning can do for
the DSRAD over the long-term
b. To acquire feedback regarding the proposed strategic planning process and make
adjustments as needed and able
Step z: Assess - Conduct an Organizational and Community Assessment
a. Document Review
I would first review any foundational documents - grants, goals, bylaws, etc. - that serve as
a foundation for how DSRAD operates.
In particular, I would review:
• The California Arts Council Next Five Years Report
• The San Rafael Econornic Development Strategic Plan
• DSRAD's grant application to the California Arts Council
• The California Arts CounciI's Strategic Framework
b. One-on-one Interviews
Next, I would conduct one-on-one, confidential, Zoom -based interviews with each of the six
DSRAD leaders. The interviews would take between thirty minutes and an hour. The key
questions that I'd likely ask are:
• With as much detail as possible, paint a picture of the organization in five years.
• Regarding your vision (a), what are the barriers to that vision?
• Regarding the barriers (b), what, specifically, should be done to overcome those
barriers?
• What role and responsibility do you envision for yourself and your organization in
DSRAD going forward?
c. Community Outreach: Stakeholder Interviews and Focus Groups
To create/strengthen partnerships and acquire relevant ideas/information about the
Downtown San Rafael Arts District, I would conduct a set of interviews and focus group
sessions with key stakeholders:
• Ten Stakeholder Interviews: I would conduct up to ten one-on-one Zoom -based
interviews with key stakeholders.
• Five Focus Groups: I would conduct five Zoom -based focus groups of up to six
persons each. (Draft set of "five" groups - Economic Development, Youth, Art Adults,
Other Arts Orgs, LatinX/BIPOC (integrated throughout?), Community Audience)
The interviews and focus groups would engage up to forty persons within the community.
I would work with the DSRAD strategic planning committee to identify the List of stakeholder
interviews and the composition of the focus groups.
d. Conduct Arts District Research
I would conduct basic research on the key factors that support successful Cultural Arts
Districts by reviewing relevant documents such as those provided by Americans for the Arts
and the California Arts Council, and articles Like this.
Further, these documents would be organized for DSRAD leaders to access and review for
their own study.
2
Step: Plan - Create a Strategic Plan
I Would serve as a consultant and facilitator that Leads to a focused strategic plan, Given the
newness and small size of the organization, I Would ensure that the format, size, and
complexity of the plan is the best practical match for the organization's capacity.
The plan Would have the following basic structure:
A. Compass
a. Mission Statement
b. Vision Statement
c. Strategic Priorities
B. Actions
a. Small set of focus areas (i.e., programs, operations, board development, etc.),
each With a three-year vision for success
b. One-year goals for each focus area, possibly With supporting action items
c. Due dates and persons responsible
The plan Would be captured in either strategic planning software or a Word/Google
document. (Our software is something that most of our clients use but We'LL need to discuss
this further. There is no impact on the fees Whether you use the software or not.)
Further, wed identify two persons that would serve as the "overaLL" champions of the
strategic plan, ensuring that the plan is well -executed over time.
Wed arrive at the plan as follows:
A. Create Assessment and Set of Recommendations
I would analyze and synthesize the information that I learned in the organizational
assessment process (see Step z, prior page) into a slide -based report and set of
recommendations for the strategic plan.
B, Conduct Half -Day Planning Session #1
I would facilitate a half -day planning session with the DSRAD leaders where I'd share
my analysis and recommendations, solicit feedback, and promote discussion.
After the meeting I would use the feedback to make revisions to my analysis and
recommendations, as needed.
It's possible that the DSRAD Leaders will also have some work to do following the
meeting, such as revising a mission and vision statement, clarifying priorities, refining
three-year visions, goal-writing/editing, etc,
3
C. Conduct Half -Day Planning Session #2
Two weeks after the first planning session (item B, above), I'd facilitate a second
session where Wed finalize the plan, clarifying due dates and persons responsible.
Step 4 Execute - Provide Follow-up Support
As a new organization, the plan creation and execution process would be a new
organizational process that will take commitment and discipline to execute well. As such, I
would serve as a coach and consultant by conducting four Zoom -based calls with the
overall plan champions over the course of one year,
Timeline
Steps 1-3 in this process would take place over a three-month period. Step 4 would take
place over the twelve months after the plan is created.

About Mission Met
Summary
Strategic planning for nonprofits and mission -driven organizations is the sole focus of
Mission Met. In fact, our mission is to make strategic planning simpler and more effective for
mission -driven leaders.
Our approach has been created over two decades based upon feedback from our
customers and the work of numerous management and leadership thinkers (Pat Lencioni,
Jinny Ditzler, Stephen Covey, Jim Collins, Peter Drucker, etc.).
We believe that strategic planning
• Must be approached as a continuous improvement process, not an event
• Should be pragmatic and user-friendly
• Success is especially dependent upon the ongoing leadership of two or three key
team members that we call "overall champions"
• Is most effective when numerous members of the staff and board are engaged
• Practical software catalyzes how teams capture, communicate, and track progress
on their plan
Lead Consultant — Eric Ryan
The consulting team is led by Eric Ryan. Eric is a co-founder of Mission Met and is a national
Leader in the field of strategic planning for nonprofits. He has founded a nonprofit, been an
executive director, and served on many nonprofit boards. He's been a consultant for
twenty-six years and has provided strategic planning guidance and services to over 200
organizations. He is the author of Mission Met. Proven Strategic Planning Guidance to Help
You Build a Financially Secure and Impactful Nonprofit. He has created a nonprofit strategic
planning course and is a designer of strategic planning software for nonprofits.

Some Differentiating Qualities of Mission Met
We're Mission -driven Nonprofit Leaders
We got into our work because we're driven to make a difference. As such, our mission is to
make strategic planning simpler and more effective for mission -driven leaders, Like you.
Our consultants are experienced nonprofit leaders: executive directors, board chairs,
program leaders, etc. They have empathy for the challenges that it takes to run a nonprofit.
We understand the nuances of boards of directors, the ups and downs of fundraising, and
the pressure of the never-ending set of tasks that nonprofit Leaders have to address.
We're Experienced Strategic Planning Specialists
We've created hundreds of strategic plans for nonprofits. We've written a nonprofit strategic
planning book, created an online strategic planning course, and developed nonprofit
strategic planning software that is being used by thousands of Leaders around the world.
Nonprofit strategic planning is our sole focus.
Our Proven Four -step Process
We have created a special four -step planning process that mitigate many of the challenges
of nonprofit strategic planning.
Called the CAPE Cycle, the process leads to the creation of a "rolling plan" that always stays
relevant. In this approach you create your core strategic plan once and revise it annually so
that your plan addresses your current challenges and opportunities. This approach helps
your organization save money on the strategic planning process while staying nimble in
pursuit of your Long-term vision.
Step is Champion
/ Step 2: Assess
/ Step 3: Plan
Step q: Execute
By approaching strategic planning as a cycle -- as opposed to an event -- we'll help ensure
that the strategic plan will be a living and breathing guide that will be measured and revised
over time. (You can learn more about this in our CAPE Cycle video.)

We Leverage the Power of Software
In 2015 we launched our strategic planning software, specifically designed for small and
medium-sized nonprofits.
Since then we've seen hove the software has made our clients' strategic planning much
more organized, easier to communicate, and made the measurement and reporting of the
plan much faster and simpler. The software has been a game -changer for our clients'
strategic planning effectiveness.
We Provide a Special Focus on Executing the Plan
We've learned that the primary problem with nonprofit strategic planning is typically the
poor execution of the plan. As such we've created several tools to overcome that problem
- We work closely with the organization's leaders to strengthen a mental model that
strategic planning is an ongoing process, not an event
- We provide follow-up coaching and support once a plan is completed
- We offer monthly "office hours" that are free to our clients
- Our software provides optional automated reminders to help people on the team
stay up-to-date on the plan
- We provide calendar templates for your team to establish an ongoing cadence of
measuring and tracking your plan
Simple and Practical Two -section Plan
If you're not careful, strategic planning can become an overly complex quagmire.
With that in mind, we've created a simple two -section strategic plan format that is easy to
understand and communicate. Further, we have developed a practical three-part planning
Logic that includes a three-year vision, one-year goals, and short-term action items.
