Checklist: How to Create a nTembu Pyramid for your Community
Creating a high-performing community pyramid requires strategic planning and structured management. This checklist guides you step-by-step to ensure the success of your project with nTembu.
1. Define the Pyramid's Foundations
- Identify participating institutions: List the major families, associations, businesses, or other organizations that will form the pillars of your pyramid.
- Clarify objectives: Develop a clear mission for the pyramid—whether to promote solidarity, support social projects, foster investments, or combine these priorities.
- Name the pyramid: Choose a name that symbolizes your community's values, history, and identity.
2. Form a Governance Team
- Appoint the 6 main administrators (representing 6 institutions in the community):
- Super Admin: Manages pyramid creation and coordinates with other administrators.
- Heart Admin: Develops and manages solidarity services (e.g., community support funds).
- Eye Admin: Oversees financial control and ensures transparency.
- Mouth Admin: Handles representation and mediation within the community.
- Right Hand Admin: Creates and manages social projects.
- Left Hand Admin: Designs and leads investment projects.
- Establish an organizational chart: Clearly assign responsibilities to each administrator for effective management.
- Define a long-term vision: Outline fundamental values and strategic direction to guide the pyramid's actions.
3. Create and Configure the Pyramid with nTembu
- Create the account for your representative institution (family, association, business) on nTembu:
- Use the institution's official email address (not a personal one) to ensure administrative continuity.
- Register the institution's name and the person in charge of its management.
- Create the pyramid on the nTembu platform:
- Go to the PYRAMIDS tab on the homepage and click on CREATE PYRAMID.
- Enter the required administrative information. A nTembu pyramid is also considered an institution.
- Important: The email address used for the Super Admin's registration is the one associated with the institution that will occupy this role in the pyramid being created.
- Invite administrators' institutions: The Super Administrator invites the other five administrators using the email addresses of their respective institutions.
- Plan a launch event: Organize a meeting or campaign to officially present the pyramid to the community and encourage members to join.
4. Plan Services and Projects
- Develop solidarity services:
- Identify priority community needs, such as funeral support funds.
- Plan additional services tailored to the specific expectations of the community.
- List social and investment projects: Plan sustainable initiatives that generate income or improve living conditions.
5. Establish Financial Policies
- Set contributions: Determine the amounts to collect from member institutions to cover the pyramid's operating costs.
- Use the administration fee collection tool:
- The total amount to be collected is divided equally among member institutions, ensuring fairness regardless of the number of members per institution.
- Ensure financial transparency:
- Use nTembu tools to track contributions and expenses in real time.
- Place community funds in recognized financial institutions. Withdrawals must be validated by administrators according to established procedures.
6. Mobilize Human and Financial Resources
- Invite member institutions:
- Integrate participating institutions into your pyramid through the nTembu platform.
- Official representatives act on behalf of their members.
- Seek financial partners: Identify donors, investors, or organizations willing to support community projects.
7. Monitoring and Evaluation
- Track performance: Analyze contributions, projects, and activities through the nTembu dashboard.
- Gather feedback: Regularly consult members to adapt services and improve the pyramid's efficiency according to evolving needs.
