Teams that promote and foster a growth mindset tend to be more collaborative, empowered, and committed--all factors we need in an effective organization. But how do difficult times impact people’s ability to stay positive and maintain a growth mindset? In this session, we'll review Dr. Carol Dweck's research on mindset, translate how a growth mindset can help build a more effective team, and provide real-world examples of how mindset can help you not only survive, but thrive in spite of our current environment.

We give in the charitable sector. We give our money, time, and energy...sometimes to the point of feeling absolutely spent. But if we don't take care of ourselves, how can we continue to be change-makers in the world? Using ikigai, a Japanese concept about your life's purpose, we will explore how to develop a mindset that supports self-care and how to prioritize yourself in your already busy life.

When you are in a small or medium sized organization with limited staff, it can sometimes feel like you’re on a never ceasing hamster wheel—you are constantly dealing with the day to day demands and seemingly making little progress. But any organization and any size staff can find ways to make the fundraising program more effective, helping to build resources and the case to grow. Using real-world examples, this session addresses the challenges of a small shop, provides practical tips on doing more with less, and shares thoughts on how to affect the culture of your organization to prioritize an investment in your philanthropic program.

Fundraising for people with no time to fundraise

In fundraising, emergencies seem to arise every day – a donor needs immediate attention, a proposal is due today, or a mailing needs to be approved right now. Unfortunately, this can lead to a high level of stress and a lack of health for the development program and you, the practitioner! How can we change the paradigm and create a healthy, sustainable fundraising program that leads to a less stressed out fundraiser? In this workshop, we’ll work on a comprehensive development plan that includes sustainable strategies and a realistic, workable plan for your fundraising efforts. This session is designed for small to medium-sized shops that are generalist in nature, where staff need to cover multiple responsibilities. Those who have not previously put together a plan will gain the most from this session.

In the philanthropic community now, we have the greatest span of generations in recent memory—as donors, volunteers and professional practitioners. As we develop our fundraising programs, we must consider that each generation has different motivations for philanthropy, different modes of communication, and different ways that they will take action. So how do we engage Baby Boomers, Generation X, Millennials and the activist Gen Z in our causes? Explore the characteristics of the generations, communication methods, and do's and don't's in intergenerational development.

Presentation description: Take care of this, STAT! In fundraising, there are many “acute” issues that seem to arise every day—a donor needs immediate attention, or a proposal is due today, or a mailing needs to be approved right now.

How can we change the paradigm and create a healthy, sustainable fundraising program that leads to a less stressed out fundraiser? In this workshop, we'll work on a comprehensive development plan that includes sustainable fundraising strategies, discuss ways to improve the health of your organization's culture of philanthropy, and examine what it takes to create a “wellness plan” for your development efforts.

It's often very easy to recognize when an organization needs to change, but it's a lot harder to make it happen! Legacy staff and volunteers, “we've always done it this way” perspectives, and plain old inertia can put many frustrating road blocks in your way. There are ways, however, for the persistent and patient to guide the change process and help an organization evolve. Using real world examples, we'll discuss the stages of organizational growth, personality archetypes you may encounter, and strategies to build momentum toward change.

Managing Change When There are Humans Involved

Do you love your work? Are you great at being a fundraiser? But do you have a sense that you could be a little bit more content with how it all fits together? In Japanese culture, there is a concept called ikigai, loosely translated to "your life's purpose." While there are a lot of discussions about finding your why and your passion, in reality, it's not just about that. Whether you'd like to work on your own sense of personal leadership, or help coach someone else, this session will provide insight on the elements of ikigai, the ways to evaluate where you stand on each of the spheres of life, and tools to improve how your passion, vocation, and mission intersect.
