Successful nonprofits (and my clients) consistently reach their goals when they do these four things. 🔑 #1: Plan & budget to invest in technology (hardware especially) at least every three years. 🔑 #2: Pay a competitive wage to get the best people. 🔑 #3: Include professional development and coaching in your budget, especially for the CEO and fundraising staff AND make sure they use it! And, you guessed it! 🔑 #4: Plan for annual strategic planning in your budget and include the funds for a facilitator and off-site meeting space in your budget.

Strategic plans shouldn’t be static documents. Build in an annual (or more frequently) strategic plan check-in to review progress, adjust strategies as needed, and keep the plan dynamic and relevant. I offer a Strategic Plan Refresh where we’ll update your current strategic plan in only three hours! Book a quick call for more info! https://zurl.co/LHVX

It’s not uncommon for nonprofit staff to misunderstand each other, especially in larger organizations with different teams such as direct client services, fundraising, and bookkeeping. I’ve found that identifying each person’s individual strengths and communication styles helps people understand each other better. Also, ensuring that everyone knows the strategic plan goals helps people to cooperate with each other and work together to achieve the goals. What other questions do you have on team building? . . . #nonprofit consultant
