Organizational Agility: Enhance Your Nonprofit Strategic Planning Process

March 21, 2023 @ 10:00 am - 12:00 pm

TUESDAY, MARCH 21, 2023
10 A.M. TO 12 P.M. EASTERN. ONLINE.

Presented by: Dr. John D. Lloyd
Fee: $45

WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION

In today’s world, continuous change is the rule rather than the exception. Leaders need to understand the driving forces of change (e.g. politics/elections, economy, social impact funding, workforce/virtual work environment). These varied forces of change have contributed to a growing interest in organizational agility for leaders. While organizational agility has been, and continues to be, primarily associated with for-profits, this training will provide a framework for how nonprofits can incorporate organizational agility into their strategic management philosophy.

Learning Objectives

  • Organizational Agility: what is it, what is it not, and why it matters
  • Assessing organizational agility — a framework for evaluating agility
  • Organizational agility as part of the strategic planning process
  • Practical implications for nonprofit boards and leadership

Audience

Nonprofit leaders of director level and higher, such as director of operations, development director, finance director/CFO, etc. Additionally, board members and executive committee members of the board are welcome.
