Practical Results Based Management

With this course, you are able to apply Results Based Management in a practical manner.

• You will know how to plan for results by following five steps: defining the problem, drawing up a Theory of Change, selecting and formulating outcomes, defining outputs, and putting it all together in a plan that focuses on results.
  

• You will also be able to design a monitoring system that captures results using five steps: dig into what we already know, find out what others already know, measure it ourselves, use the magic of sampling, or estimate it in a credible manner.
  

• Using our six rules, you will write high-impact result reports that are tailored to your audience, are structured as a storyline, and relentlessly focus on what really counts: results.

  
  

• Overall, you will be able to make use of this practical RBM approach to adjust anything do in your work - planning, monitoring, reporting - with a focus on results. It's a change in mindset! The five pillars of RBM demand a relentless focus on outcomes, adapting based on what really works, quick feedback loops with stakeholders, budgeting for outcomes, and keeping it simple, but not simplistic.

It's all about making the world a better (and more evidence-based ;-) place!
