Leveraging Nonprofit Lifecycles for Success with Kristi Taylor
About this Event
When you hear the terms, “The Terrible Twos” or “Adolescence” most of us can conjure up visuals, behaviors, needs, or challenges associated with human beings in those phases of life. For decades researchers have studied humans as they grow and mature through various stages of development and have created benchmarks and expectations of everything from behaviors to needs for each stage. What if I told you that nonprofit organizations similarly grow and evolve through predictable stages or lifecycles? And, that each of these stages also have benchmarks and expectations of behaviors and needs! This is known as the Nonprofit Lifecycles Model and once we know it we can use it as a powerful tool to make informed and strategic decisions to maximize the success of our organizations.
Join us for a workshop that will provide a clear overview of the 7 Nonprofit Lifecycles including the unique characteristics, needs, and challenges of each. Participants will have the opportunity to explore real life examples of how each stage can show up in an organization, engage with the Lifecycles Model as a tool for organizational evaluation and “diagnosis” of needs & opportunities, as well as reflect on how this model could be leveraged within their current organization.
This workshop is excellent for all nonprofit leaders and board members but we specifically welcome those in a period of transition as understanding your organizational life stage can provide the framework for growth during change.
