| Abstract: Do you ever feel that your clients don’t know what to do with the findings from your evaluation? Do you feel that your findings don’t fit within the larger organizational context? Do you want to learn more ways in which you can help your client to better translate your findings and recommendations into effective actions? In this roundtable participants will share tools and methods which encourage clear linkages between an evaluation and concrete actions for improved client performance. It will include program and systems evaluation approaches with examples of research design, recommendation frameworks, and client activities which have produced concrete, clear actions by the client based on evaluation findings. Bring your experiences and ideas to the table for a dynamic discussion with a variety of approaches. |
