Nonprofit organizations
play a vital role in building healthy communities by contributing to the economic and social stability, and well-being of its constituents.
If asked how nonprofit organizations define their success, they will tell you….by the impact they have on the constituents they serve and the community that surrounds them. In short, by working hard to achieve their mission.
Organizational best practices, along with respected institutions such as GuideStar and Charity Navigator, now encourage nonprofits, local governments, and community partners to embrace and talk about the impact and results of our work as a key component to evaluating success as a healthy community.
To do that, we must broaden our focus from one of just financial ratios,
to a focus that includes and embraces impact and results.
Join us for a fun and informative day at the Center for Nonprofit Leadership’s Second Annual Community Impact Forum as we shift the lens on understanding, evaluating, presenting, and talking about our successes, our impact.
In the morning, Plenary Speaker Kim Tucker, Executive Director of the Impact Foundry, will speak with participants on how we shift the nonprofit leadership lens to focus on planning for long-term impact.
Our Key Note speaker Alison Lehman, County Executive Officer at County of Nevada will share the impact of the local nonprofit community and provide insights on what we lose if we fail to plan for a sustainable future.
The afternoon will be broken into 2 sessions: After the lunch break, we will discuss strategies and internal tools for shifting organizational focus away from the traditional “doing more with less” philosophy. Ann Lucas of Nonprofit Strategies, will instead help us explore a model rooted in achieving goals and outcomes through investing in the infrastructure needed to achieve them. In the second session, Co-directors, Aimee Retzler and Malaika Bishop of Sierra Harvest will walk through a real life case study of their organization’s success. Participants will explore the ways to meet the critical objective of effectively communicating impact. The session will help attendees identify ways in which to address the need to share results to both constituents and to the larger community. Let’s start answering the question – how do we talk about impact!
