Accelerating Impact With Automation for Girls on the Run

FTI Consulting partnered with Girls on the Run International (“GOTR”), a nonprofit organization empowering girls to strengthen their physical and mental health through experience-based curricula integrated with running, to design a robust and user-friendly dashboard to improve data-driven decision-making across the organization.

Our Impact

FTI Consulting delivered the organization’s first comprehensive dashboarding suite, providing clear and effective visualizations that showcase GOTR’s impact and give key insights into performance across councils.
Our experts streamlined data reporting through a live, automatically updated tool that evolves with each new Excel data entry, ensuring the organization benefits for many seasons to come.
The team eliminated tedious data input and visualization tasks, allowing leadership to focus on advancing and communicating their mission.

Our Role

FTI Consulting conducted a needs assessment with GOTR’s leadership and reviewed current visualization methods to identify key areas for dashboard development.
The team collaborated closely with GOTR’s data team to ensure the dashboard accurately reflected tracked metrics and enhanced existing visualization tools.
Our experts developed a 16-page, interactive Power BI dashboard linked to live SharePoint data, providing insights on KPIs such as participation, retention, financials, diversity and website metrics.
FTI Consulting delivered live demonstrations and comprehensive training modules to ensure GOTR’s leadership and council leaders could confidently use, maintain and share dashboard insights.
