Event Details

This session will look at nonprofit planning for a new economy. The traditional rules of strategic planning still apply but, in some respects, they have been turned on their head by exigencies beyond the control of the nonprofit organization. We will look at models that work and will consider what adjustments in organizational planning might be appropriate, given the changes in the way we engage with donors, clients/constituents and the public. This presentation offers a fresh take on planning and strategies based on years of working with nonprofits to enhance their business practices.
