Increase Your Operating Capacity: How to Grow

Description:

Are you ready to take your organization to the next level? Once you’ve determined your organization is prepared to build capacity, what comes next?

One common challenge with capacity-building initiatives is understanding what capacity building truly means and how to communicate its transformative impact. Capacity building goes beyond “business as usual.” It’s about identifying when, where, and how to grow within your organization to amplify your impact.

During this webinar, Mandy Pearce of Funding For Good will demystify the capacity-building process, breaking it down into manageable steps. You'll learn how to develop a custom action and implementation plan tailored to your unique needs. While planning processes aren’t one-size-fits-all, there are universal steps every organization can take to advance—and we’ll equip you with practical tools, tips, and templates to get started. We'll also explore budget considerations and fundraising strategies to help you fuel growth.

You’ll learn:

• the three primary areas of capacity building and how to confirm your organization’s readiness;
• how to tailor a sample action and implementation plan for a capacity-building initiative; and,
• the budgeting processes essential for achieving fundraising success.

You’ll walk away with a clearer understanding of what capacity building is, along with tools to assess your organization’s readiness and kick-start action and implementation planning processes.

Who should attend:

This session is perfect for executive directors, department heads, program directors, board members, and any staff or volunteers working to raise funds.
