If the opportunities and challenges faced by your non-profit require increasing flexibility and responsiveness then this webinar may be for you.
Wherever people work together, they make choices that influence the flexibility and responsiveness of your organization. In other words, they govern each other. How they govern their use of resources is not just luck, it can be “designed”.
This interactive webinar will explore how to create capacity for flexibility and responsiveness by systematically building relationships that are strength based.
This session examines the advent of a new class of indicators in sustainability measurement and reporting known as context-based metrics, or CBMs. Unlike most of what passes for best practice today, CBMs express organizational performance relative to norms, standards or thresholds for what such impacts would have to be in order to be sustainable. Thus, they provide more literal measures of sustainability performance than are typically used, while also responding to the call for context in measurement by the world's leading sustainability reporting standard: GRI. The session will begin with a brief synopsis of contemporary metrics followed by an introduction and description of CBMs in details, with examples included.

Appreciative Governance: Engagement and Innovation Throughout The Organization4Good.org
Boards of Directors and Executive Management committees come to mind whenever we mention organizational governance. This premise that those at the top are the only ones “governing” has less and less face validity. Wherever people work together, they make choices which influence the organizations direction, choices that set standards of relationship, behavior and accountability and choices that shape fulfillment of the organizations purpose. In other words, they govern. Why not then engage them in governance processes that support sustainable value for all?
Appreciative Governance is such a process. Appreciative Governance (AG) refers to governance structures, practices, and processes that increase the organization’s capacity for innovation, engagement and productivity by systematically engaging more of the system's strengths.
This interactive webinar will explore this new form of governance and invite participants to consider the life-giving structures and processes which would enhance their organization’s capacity to work together in positive, dynamic, and generative ways that enact their purpose.

Nonprofits today are faced with unprecedented challenges, and yet we continue to approach board leadership using concepts from thirty years ago. As our organizations enter into new territory, so our boards need to lead differently - yet we continue to put our efforts into getting the structure 'right'. But there is no magical number of board members or committees, or use of Robert's Rules of Order or Consent agendas, that will transform our boards into the strategic thinkers or powerful decision makers they need to be. Instead, structure must be seen as only the foundation - and board behavior and dynamics approached in a new way - to lead effectively into the future.

Many entrepreneurs – social, triple bottom line or otherwise – do not avail themselves of all potential capital sources when seeking funding to grow or scale, limiting prospects to cash flow their initiatives. This seminar explores a range of options for funding: external in the marketplace, internal within an organization, new ideas and classics not to overlook.
Most nonprofits involve volunteers in program areas and administrative areas. You might not be aware, however, of the many ways you can involve volunteers in your fundraising activities. This webinar will outline ways you can involve volunteers in fundraising, where to find volunteers, how to recruit them, and how to keep them enthused about your organization.
Could your mission statement describe any of several other organizations that are similar to yours? Do you just haul it out once a year for your annual report and 990? If you’ve been around for many years, you’re clear about your nonprofit’s value to your community, your stakeholders and/or your cause, why bother to revisit your mission statement?
The answers to these questions can make the difference between sustainable success and failure in several ways. Organizations that have a page-long mission statements and think that any effort to review it would be just empty wordsmithing may want to join us for this webinar to see what a rigorously crafted mission statement can do for marketing, fundraising, stakeholder loyalty, strategy, and managing change.

Nonprofit Blogging Best Practices: Why Your Nonprofit Needs a Blog and How to...4Good.org
Despite the popularity of social media including “micro-blogging” sites like Tumblr and twitter, traditional blogging is still one of the most important tools in your digital marketing arsenal.
Larger nonprofits have been early adopters of blogging, seeing the benefits in increased website traffic, email sign ups and online donations. A consistent, quality blog has been proven to have a direct benefit on marketing and fundraising efforts – so why do so many nonprofits ignore this powerful tool?
The question remains: How can smaller nonprofits get on board with blogging and create a dynamic outlet that grows their supporters and helps them accomplish their goals?

How has the process of successfully approaching funders changed?

Four Great Hormones to Stimulate Well-Being4Good.org
Recent neuroscience research has verified that the well-being that comes from meaningful conversations depends upon four hormones that we have the ability to either stimulate or depress in ourselves and in others. This Webinar will deal with the four and explain their role in personal and interpersonal well-being.
What do you do when someone signs up for your email list or donates to your organization? Do they have to wait until your next “monthly” newsletter to learn more about who you are and what you do? If so, you are missing out on a huge opportunity to engage, inspire and motivate your supporters to take action.
One of the best ways to engage with new subscribers (or new donors for that matter) is to create what is called a “Welcome Series” of emails. These emails are set to automatically be sent to the individual over the course of a few weeks – Day 1 they get an email, day 4 they get another email, day 8 they get yet another email, etc. These emails are designed to introduce yourself and your organization to the individual, as well as show them the impact your organization is having and why they should stay connected.
Sounds like a great idea and something all nonprofits should be doing right? The problem is that most nonprofits are not currently using a Welcome Series and are missing out on this powerful tool. If this includes your organization, then join us for this jam-packed webinar where we highlight a number of successful strategies and tactics you can start using immediately including:
- Why a Welcome Series is so powerful (Its all about the relationship)
- How to create an engaging and compelling Welcome Series
- How and why you should have multiple Welcome Series’ – subscribers, donors, attendees, etc.
- How a Welcome Series can increase your donor retention

Mission and Leadership: Work Motivation That Strikes a Chord4Good.org
Most organizations have a formalized mission statement. Too often it is merely posted on a wall in the conference room. Often, employees grow cynical and state that the organization’s mission statement is just that: an empty statement. However, other organizations follow a structured process that allows their managers to lead with integrity while using the core principles of mission-driven organizations.
In this extremely practical presentation, that Dr. Eyal Ronen has never shared in the past, he will describe the practical steps to creating a clear mission, vision, and values for the organization. He will also describe the 4 things every leader must do in order to be effective in accomplishing his or her, and the organization’s mission.
Affordable Special Events Data Tracking and Analysis4Good.org

Have You Been Sequestered?—Developing Diverse Sources of Revenue4Good.org
Many nonprofits are excessively dependent upon a single type of revenue. The classic example is the organization which is only funded through government contracts or grants. Others may be totally reliant upon one or two private foundations or local corporations. In this webinar, volunteer leaders, agency CEO's and chief development officers will learn the value of diversifying the sources of revenue so as to enhance financial sustainability.

7. How Important Is Flexibility and Responsiveness In
Your Non-Profit?
1. We experience shifts in demand that we don’t always respond to effectively
(Scale of 1-5, 5 being “yes that’s us” )
2. Increased agility, speed, flexibility and re-would help us significantly
(Scale of 1-5, 5 being “yes that’s us” )
3. Our clients would be better served if the way we delivered services was even more
integrated. (Scale of 1-5, 5 being “yes that’s us” )
4. People in our organization sometimes complain about a lack of coordination (Scale
of 1-5, 5 being “yes that’s us” )
5. We live in a somewhat unpredictable world where new opportunities have to be
seized quickly. (Scale of 1-5, 5 being “yes that’s us” )

8. Adaptive Work Systems 8
• “The Adaptive Work System is an arrangement of roles,
processes and relationships that, by design, allow greater
responsiveness to shifts in demand or opportunity.
• Performance characteristics such as agility, speed,
flexibility and re-configurability are typically delivered by
the adaptive work system”.

(and the organization’s) strengths?
And designing all the governance variables
around them.

24. What does the design of an organization’s
structures, practices, and processes
have to do with Integration?
“ I am led to conclude that an organization’s
(governance) structure can be moral or immoral
in and of itself.
Thus I realize that consciously constructing an
organization that, by its design, impairs people’s
health is ultimately no different than willfully using
asbestos in the construction of a brick-and-
mortar building when we know that the material is
likely to compromise the health of the buildings
inhabitants.”

University.
