LOOKING BACK, LOOKING AHEAD KEY FINDINGS FROM THE 2023 FUNDRAISING OUTLOOK REPORT

Delighting the donor is not always best. Yes, we said it. And yes, we know it's considered blasphemy in traditional fundraising. Join us for this conversation where we'll unpack the legacy of donor centricity and its effect on today's nonprofit organizations working toward systemic change. In this session, featuring Bethany Maki of Progressive Multiplier and a panel of leaders across the direct service and direct action spectrum, we'll discuss: how organizations that work within current power systems and those trying to shift those systems offer a different value proposition to donors how donor motivation and "passing the mic" struggle to mix; how deep base building and fundraising similarly struggle to mix how 501c legal structures exacerbate the value proposition/donor motivation alignment divide between direct service and direct action groups what we can do about all of this to better resource groups whether they are providing direct service, direct action or both

In this webinar, Alice L. Ferris, MBA, CFRE, ACFRE and James Anderson, CFRE will discuss the stages of organizational growth, personality archetypes you may encounter, and strategies to build momentum toward change.

The role of a nonprofit executive director (ED) is all-encompassing. The ED is literally in charge of everything, including the success of their board. And while every nonprofit is different, there are nine key areas that every ED should master. Don't count on your board to know what EDs actually do. By knowing the job, you can deliver for your mission, your board, and your career.
