Less visible are the financial impacts of the climate crisis—but they too are significant, and intensifying. Individuals, communities, and organizations need to prepare for this escalating financial burden. The first place that most of us will experience the direct costs of climate change is in the insurance market, and the problem has already emerged.

Employee recognition has often been deemed a "feel-good" initiative, tied closely to rewards. While we understand its importance, we tend to associate recognition with intangible outcomes like engagement and sentiment, rather than direct impacts on retention and high performance. In today’s workplace, the true ROI of recognition lies in its ability to regenerate tangible, business-driven results.

Data—it’s one of those buzzwords that seems to promise everything. We all know it’s important, but when GivingTuesday rolls around, many nonprofits find themselves either swimming in too much of it or unsure how to make sense of what they’ve got. If that sounds familiar, don’t worry. The real magic isn’t just in collecting data—it’s in putting it to work strategically.

What must nonprofit leaders do to counter the public’s declining trust in institutions? First, the decline is real and pervasive, as can be seen through several studies, including the Edelman Trust Barometer. Second, evidence of the decline can be seen in the loss of individual giving and in the ebbing of broad institutional support, as noted in many analyses, including the 2016 US Trust study of high-net-worth individuals , and the parallel trend of philanthropists increasingly targeting their

The series of waves that the pandemic began have rippled through the Great Resignation, quiet quitting, the Great Regret, and other eloquent phrases that boil down to the same thing: people aren’t engaged at work or enabled to perform at their best.
