HOW IS THEORY OF CHANGE ON ITS FEET™
DIFFERENT FROM THE TRADITIONAL LOGIC MODEL?
A tool that guides you to define and report the impact you’ll make in the world!
The Traditional
Logic Model…
OUR FIRST CONCERN
Instead of rooting an evaluation in logic, tied to impact…
We recommend defining an evaluation integrated with a theory of change, because that’s tied to outcomes.
Outcomes can be predicted and actually achieved!
WHAT'S MIS_ING?
The problem is, rarely can any program, on its own, achieve
SYSTEMIC IMPACT.

OUR NEXT CONCERN
A traditional logic model describes the goals of an organization; it does not put them into action.
Wouldn't it be slightly spectacular for your Theory of Change to be your guiding light, as you bring your goals to life?

THE SOLUTION
THE SOLUTION
Theory of Change On Its Feet™ does it all:
It guides you to envision the fullness of your long-term potential impact, and sharpen measurable, near-term, direct outcomes. The best part is: you then use the tool
to actually track against theory and report what happened.
IT'S NOT ONLY A LOGIC
MODEL THAT IS ESSENTIALLY A DREAM.
IT'S NOT A TYPICAL THEORY
OF CHANGE THAT IS USED TO PLAN
AND THEN SITS ON THE SHELF.
