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.

A ten-week series on things you should know about fundraising. You are not your donor. The most common cause of unsuccessful fundraising is “FFY” — Fundraising From Yourself. When nonprofit insiders assume this: If a message appeals to me, it will work for donors. It’s a big mistake. Because you are so different from your donor — everything from your demographics to your level of knowledge, to your depth of engagement, to you level of attention.

Mistakes are part of being human, and they’re certainly part of nonprofit work. Nevertheless, a large portion of the population is deeply afraid of failing and making mistakes. A Linkagoal survey found that 31% of adult respondents feared failure—that’s more than those who feared spiders (30%) or the paranormal (15%). Mistakes are nothing to fear when you reframe them as opportunities to learn, grow, and, ultimately, better serve your nonprofit’s community.

It is a gathering of knowledge about interacting with supporters in ways that honor their personhood with dignity and promote BIPOC communities’ well-being. What is Community-Centric Fundraising?

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.
