- 2How to get an unresponsive nonprofit board to helpNonprofit executive directors are forced to handle every administrative, financial, and fundraising duty alone while unresponsive board members completely ignore requests for assistance. This leaves directors stuck doing everything from bookkeeping and grant writing to social media and payroll without any support or follow-through.
- 2Ideas to make an annual event memorableAdding a new big or little wow factor is what keeps an annual event from just being a pain. Without new flair beyond the usual auctions and 50/50 raffles, attendees leave wanting to go straight home to Netflix. Incorporating an extra, standout activity maximizes the experience so guests leave talking about it and already wanting to come back next year.
- 2Do I need to tell my employer about side work?Taking on independent projects raises questions about whether it is ethical to bypass your main company and if you must disclose the extra work to leadership. Because many are not ready to go fully independent, they want to keep the work a secret but worry about how their jobs might find out.
