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.

Some organizations take it as an article of faith that their donors are different. Even unique. In some ways they’re right. But mostly they’re wrong. Here’s how any group of donors is different: it’s a purpose-build assembly of people who care about some cause. They share values (at least some values). They know and care about similar things. Often, they live in the same community.

Mission-driven organizations often assume their values naturally translate to an inclusive workplace environment. Integrating diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) values into an organization’s culture, however, requires intentional effort and awareness. Not everyone starts with an understanding of the deeply entrenched social and economic inequities that can contribute to exclusion and opportunity gaps.

Over the last decade, I’ve had the privilege of learning from Bill Crouch , the founder of BrightDot and a fundraising expert with decades of experience. One thing Bill has impressed on me time and again is this: emotional intelligence (EQ) isn’t just a buzzword—it’s the secret sauce that separates good fundraisers from those who close transformational gifts.

Year-end fundraising coincides with the gratitude season, which includes Thanksgiving in the U.S. and the December holidays. This is appropriate since thanking your donors is part of the fundraising equation, even though many nonprofits don’t always realize this. Now is a great opportunity to show some gratitude to your donors. You could hold a thankathon , especially if you haven’t launched your appeal yet.

By Jerry Kenney , Ines Polonius & Gustavo Lasala How do we build thriving rural communities in the 21st century? The labor-intensive, extractive industries paradigm that has long powered rural economies—think agriculture, manufacturing, mining, timber—has fundamentally changed due to automation and globalization , and the search for new rural development models is coalescing around a new vision.
Speaker: Radhika Samant and Adri Glover
The world of work has fundamentally changed. 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. The truth is that engagement and enablement is more important than ever, but how we do it is the critical differentiator for many organizations.

Gaining new donors and maintaining those relationships long term is essential to the success of your nonprofit and its projects. It’s important to recognize that the next generation of donors has arrived with their own set of expectations, values, and perspectives. To attract them to your cause, you can’t rely on the same strategies you may have used for Gen X or Baby Boomers.
