Resilient leaders must constantly refine their management skills and this is increasingly hard when the old rules about management don’t apply to the new world of technology, teleworking, and virtual face time. For example, do you know what Monkeys, Zoom, and MOCHA have in common?
Join us at this session to learn the answer and let Jana Sharp, of Sharp Insight, LLC help you and other nonprofit leaders navigate this new terrain. Understanding these tools will help you strengthen your skills as a manager. At the core of these strategies are intentional planning, strong communication, and a variety of technological tools designed to make your team more focused, aligned, and productive.

Important conversations about racial equity are happening throughout our region. Montgomery County is developing a Racial Equity and Social Justice Policy, and many regional funders are looking at their policies, processes and grantmaking with an equity lens. As leaders in social justice work, nonprofit organizations have an important role to play in advancing equity in our community.
This Funders Dialogue will be an opportunity for a dialogue with local funders about how racial equity is informing their work with nonprofits. How does it change the expectations of grantees? How can nonprofits be an active partner in this work?
Featured Speakers:
Don’t miss this opportunity to hear directly from funders how they prioritize equity in funding decisions and how you can align your work to be most meaningful, equitable, and impactful.
Wednesday, May 1 from 1:30-3:30 p.m.
The Activity Center at Bohrer Park – 506 South Frederick Avenue, Gaithersburg 20877
Hosted by the City of Gaithersburg
Who should attend: Nonprofit and philanthropy leaders and board members
It’s been ten years since Nonprofit Montgomery was born out of the Community Foundation from conversations about the need for nonprofit advocacy and capacity building in the County.
We celebrate a decade of impact and new milestones reached in 2018/2019, including:
In 2019, after several years under fiscal sponsorship, Nonprofit Montgomery obtained 501(c)(3) status and is now established as an independent nonprofit. And in two weeks we will celebrate a new office space and training facility as we move with Leadership Montgomery to the new Leadership Hub in Rockville.
On behalf of the Nonprofit Montgomery team, thank you to our members, funders, and partners. It is a privilege to work with Montgomery County’s nonprofit leadership and staff, and to support the important work of improving our community and helping County residents thrive.
Interfaith Works and Passion for Learning have been honored with the “Making a Difference” award from The Nonprofit Village.
