All nonprofits can benefit from this deep dive into understanding and strengthening your financial model, particularly now in light of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on programs and organizations.

Who should attend: Nonprofits attend as a team of up to four people including the Executive Director, Finance Director/CFO, Board Member, and Program Director.
The results: Better connection between your mission and internal structure, increased clarity on outcomes and the assets needed to support them; greater strategic budgeting and reporting process; and improved financial conversations across the organization (board and staff).

Crafting the perfect survey, or even just a pretty good one, can feel like a daunting process. But what if we could refine that process?
The team at Sharp Insight will review key elements to consider when approaching survey design and then walk through their survey design template. The template is intended to ease the survey design process while efficiently identifying the alignment between survey items and survey objectives. It can even help kickstart your data analysis plan right from the start of your survey process.
