From the Desk of Dr. Lydia
ORGANIZATIONAL POVERTy
The Organizational Poverty Series was created as a result of Dr. Lydia's first-hand experience and proprietary research as an Employee, Board Member, and Consultant, in multiple nonprofit settings. She found that many agencies, though mission-driven and well-intentioned, suffered from a chronic lack of: resources; satisfied staff and volunteers; and proven systems for sustainable service delivery.
From this series, nonprofit leaders will be able to:
-
Accurately diagnose org challenges they may be facing
-
Learn proven strategies to maximize both tangible and intangible resources
-
Gain tools to increase staff and volunteer confidence, performance, and retention.
-
Expand agency presence and impact through strategic collaboration
Are you ready to take your agency from Poverty to Abundance, once and for all??
