O.K., I’ll admit it. I’m one of those die hard optimists that advocates for making lemonade out of those lemons we’re being so generously served these days. One of the positive outcomes of our struggling economy is that we are seeing an increasing receptiveness by nonprofit leaders to reinventing their current business model and changing their mode of operation.
This week, we received the latest newsletter from Fieldstone Alliance, “6 Pivotal Points When Nonprofits Must Make Fundamental Changes.” This is valuable reading that outlines important signals that a nonprofit is in need of fundamental change. The managing editor, Rebecca Post, points out that “to remain strong and effective, nonprofits cannot remain static.” Isn’t that the truth? But isn’t it so hard to promote change and move our team including board members, staff, volunteers, and clients to a new paradigm? This newsletter article and the referenced book by Susan Gross provide concrete questions and discussion points to guide your critical thinking.
