When and how often should I do the self-evaluation?
The tool is designed for ongoing use, enabling organisations to regularly monitor their developments and progress over time.
What is the report and what is a roadmap?
The report provides a comprehensive overview of the self-evaluation results and delivers tailored action plans. By default, users can select three out of the five areas identified as having the most room for improvement and receive specific action plans designed to help them progress to the next level.
Additionally, the roadmap serves as a detailed resource for understanding each topic.
How can I collaborate with colleagues?
Each sports organization can create unlimited accounts. They may:
Agree First – Discuss internally, then enter a consensus view. Assess Separately – Representatives assess individually, then compare. Collaborate – Use one account, with experts handling their areas.
Do I need to have experiences in good governance?
The tool is designed to meet organisations exactly where they are in their governance journey, offering tailored solutions that align with their current status and needs. Whether your organisation is just beginning to explore governance practices or has already implemented specific actions and measures, the tool adapts to provide relevant and actionable support.
For newcomers, it serves as a comprehensive guide, introducing foundational concepts and providing step-by-step assistance to help establish strong governance practices. For organisations with profound experience, the tool offers advanced insights and strategies to refine existing practices, address challenges, and achieve higher levels of excellence. This flexibility ensures that organisations at any stage of their governance development can derive meaningful benefits and make informed progress.
Can any sport organisation use the self-evaluation tool?
The tool is designed to be highly versatile, making it beneficial for organisations across the entire spectrum of professionalization. Whether you are a non-professional federation or club operated solely by dedicated volunteers, or a professional federation or National Olympic Committee (NOC) with a diverse team of paid staff members, the tool can adapt to your needs.
Is the tool available in different languages?
The tool offers extensive multilingual support to cater to a diverse audience. The questionnaire is available in 14 languages, each translation crafted and approved by human experts to ensure accuracy and cultural relevance.
For the tool's interface, browser-based translation functionality is sufficient to navigate and use its features. Firefox and Google Chrome are recommended.
All roadmaps provided within the tool are available in all 14 languages of the questionnaires.
The results, which are primarily visual and consist of charts and analytical insights, are presented mainly in English.
