Additionally, many nonprofits are delivering services in a way they did not envision a year ago. Is it time to consider making changes to your services or business model? Could partnerships, back-office consolidation, or a merger preserve or reinvigorate your mission?
Join us for this two-part series created in collaboration with Jan Glick, who wrote Nonprofit Turnaround: A Guide for Non-Profit Leaders, Consultants, and Funders and has consulted extensively with nonprofits considering restructuring and organizational change.
Paths Forward for Financially Stressed Nonprofits
Tuesday, Jan. 26 | 2:00 to 3:30 p.m. | Online
Disruption to programs and pressure on staff may motivate organizations to look for ways to change their business model, partner with other organizations, or adjust programming to better match their mission. Learn about approaches that help you focus and strengthen your organization’s mission in the face of COVID and the economic downturn.
Jan will be joined by Julleen Snyder, CPA, CGMA (Partner at Jacobson Jarvis) and 501 Commons leadership, Kerry Kozuki (director of Management Consulting & Services) and Nancy Long (executive director).
