In September 2021, Sarah and Nancy recorded a live episode of the Nonprofit Radio Show with an audience of Idaho nonprofit leaders. They talk about maintaining morale, boards, fundraising, and more. Hear the voices of nonprofit executive directors as they ask what is most on their minds.
Question to reflect on before you listen:
What keeps you up at night?
Discussion questions:
- What resonated with you about this conversation? What would you like to take back to your organization?
- How are you responding to the need to keep fundraising events online or in some hybrid form? What have been your Plan Bs and Cs?
- We talked about how people are overwhelmed and burnt out. What are you doing to take care of yourself? What are you doing to help you team through the challenge of these times?
- We ask people what their encouraging word is. Their word is what they would put on a sticky note to remind themselves of what they need to keep top of mind. It is the word they would remember when times get tough. As you go into the winter season, what is the word that you want to hold on to?
We reference several past episodes. Here are some quick links:
