Join non-profit futurist, professor, and Social Impact Architects Founder and CEO Suzanne Smith as she dives into the mega-trends that are rapidly changing the nonprofit space here in our local communities and around the globe.
In this 150-minute keynote, Suzanne will guide you through the ins and outs of non-profit strategy so that you walk away with a clear strategic direction and concrete action items to help prepare for:
- How inflation and economic trends will impact your fundraising, day-to-day operations, and bottom line
- How technology and globalization change the way you interact with your donors and staff
- How the generational hand-off impacts the workplace, communication needs, and your strategic vision
- How to create a culture that attracts and retains top talent and combats burnout
- How diversity, equity and inclusion and your vision/mission/values are the cornerstones of your brand in the community
Watch on-demand to digest and analyze learnings and build an organizational action plan that not only addresses, but also gets ahead of the mega-trends that are already causing seismic shifts in the sector.
This event is hosted by Barnes Dennig, the Association for Fundraising Professionals, and the Leadership Council for Nonprofits, and sponsored by the Better Business Bureau, Fifth Third Bank, Eagle Bank, PNC Bank, and The Yunker Group.
