Last month, we introduced Tangram’s new strategic plan. To recap, Tangram will take a multiphase approach to achieve our ten -year strategic vision of becoming the employer of choice and the provider of choice in the field of disability services for Central Indiana.

In years 1-3, Tangram will focus on operational sustainability by building our local footprint and developing our DSPs. (including CRPs)

In years 4-6, Tangram will focus on service optimization by building our local footprint and refining our programs.

In years 7-10, Tangram will focus on community wide impact by meeting community needs and scaling our programs.

Phase 1 (years 1-3) will officially launch July 1, 2020. As part of this phase, Tangram will work toward the goal of retaining our direct support staff to build a strong foundation of sustainability for current and future clients. This phase includes three initiatives and we will highlight Initiative 1 in this month’s newsletter.

Initiative 1 includes the work that Tangram will do to become an employer of choice. There are two strategies for this initiative.

Strategy A is to recruit and retain highly engaged and mission-driven DSPs and CRPs.

Strategy B is to ensure all staff have the structure and support they need to efficiently and effectively meet the needs of clients.

Over the next few months, Tangram will be identifying the actions we need to take to achieve these goals. Employees may be invited to participate in Action Planning Groups or participate in surveys. Your input in important in this process, so be on the lookout for these opportunities!
