GBI Expected Progress Against Plan
GBI Stakeholders
• GBI Board
•
•
•
•
•
– established for the overall direction of the school and a legal
entity for oversight of the school
GBI Staff
– the paid and volunteer staff who provide day-to-day oversight
of the school and are responsible for the implementation of the
vision for the school
GBI Students – the consumers of the school and representatives of our
leadership training
ARM UG
– has administered the finance and human resource of GBI for
the first 3 years of existence, as well as providing oversight for
the yearly strategic plan
Partner Churches / Community
– sending students, employing graduates
ARM US / Donors
– provision of finance and in kind donations as well as counsel
and participation in planning
Critical Success Factors
• Stakeholder acceptance and support of change
• A long term land agreement with ARM
• Recruitment and retention of staff
• Adequate training for current GBI staff
• Funding for ongoing improvements to GBI programs
• Funding to bring our new campus up to NCHE standards
• GBI receiving a Provisional License from the NCHE in a timely
manner
• Building a positive image in the community and throughout the
country
Risks
• New Guidelines from NCHE were published in 2001 and 2006, it is possible that new
revisions could be in place for 2011
• Delayed accreditation from the NCHE will continue to make it a challenge to recruit students
and find donors for GBI
• Current non-compliance with NCHE could convince the NCHE to shut GBI down, as has
happened with other schools
• Monarchy and land related riots
• Riots and disturbances from the 2011 Elections
• Conflicting interest of board members could keep GBI’s best interests from being addressed
• Community sabotage if the move of GBI to the Maranatha Secondary School campus is not
communicated well
• Another similar school receiving their provisional license before GBI could pull away potential
donors and students
• GBI’s unwillingness to pay bribes may have negative impact
• Social change such as the discovery of oil and influx of Muslims
