The Finance Director (CFO or COO) plays a unique role in a nonprofit organization. According to a recent survey of finance directors, challenges include: wearing many hats–the Finance Director might also be in charge of HR, IT, and more; reporting to both the Executive Director and the Board of Directors; managing cash flow in cash-challenged organizations; multiple grant requirements; and the need to be both strategic and involved in day to day operations.
Finance Directors are invited to join colleagues for discussion, information sharing and support for this unique, challenging and satisfying role. Tables for Ten meet three times for candid, confidential facilitated conversations and problem solving.
Dates: Thursdays, April 26, 8:30-10am, May 10, 8:30-10am and May 31, 8:30-10am
Facilitator: Ann Mazur, CEO, EveryMind
Location: The Nonprofit Village: 12320 Parklawn Dr, Rockville

Learn about untapped channels of talent, smart screening techniques, and the 10 “absolutely do not hire” red flags. The session will provide concrete tools to help with HR challenges, as well as examples from other organizations in the DC metro area who have successfully built their organizations with tight budgets.

Earlier this month we held our Spring session of MORE as part of our work building the capacity of nonprofits. More than 40 staff from 13 member organizations learned about the six steps of evaluation and began putting evaluation plans in place. The MORE experience continues with a consultation with an evaluation consultant and a follow up session in May. We will be offering another session of MORE this fall. Stay tuned for more information!
