Nonprofit – Membership Dashboard Example

What is a Membership Dashboard for a Nonprofit Organization? Membership dashboards are considered monitoring and analysis tools and are used by executives and membership managers to track trends and variances in their membership base. Some of the key functionality in this type of visual report is that it is parameter driven and can be run for any period. It has six KPI charts and a report section at the bottom. The charts provide visual analysis of actual versus target membership, members at risk per region, trends in member dues, trends in new members versus dropped members, member count per region, and new member adds versus target. You find an example of this type of visual report below.

When used as part of good business practices in a Membership department, an organization can improve its member-related strategies and speed up decision-making as well as reduce the chances that important trends or anomalies go undetected for weeks or months.
