• Change is external, such as new executive leadership, new organizational policies, or movement into a new site. Transition is internal, the process we go through to adapt to these new situations. During this workshop, you will gain a deeper understanding of your leadership style and how it impacts the way you respond to transition and change. We will also identify the potential effect of change on your team’s morale, their flexibility and productivity.

• Traditional strategic planning has focused on generating a three-year plan that sets clear goals and objectives, Yet such plans often do not define strategies that will achieve measurable outcomes. Using David La Piana’s model called The Nonprofit Strategy Revolution, we will apply tools that help you analyze your business model, assess trends in your market, and identify your competitive advantage. You will then define key sustainability questions your organization is facing and develop outcomes-based strategies to address them.  We will also generate ways to gather input from the communities we serve, so their voices and values are integrated into our work.
