Effective performance measurements are a sign of a healthy, stable organization. Increasing your comfort with the latest measurement tools and strategies will help you to not only better articulate your success to funders, but also recognize opportunities and solutions that might otherwise pass you by.
Building on her workshop at the Nonprofit Conference in September of this year, Debra will clarify how to collect, make sense of, and start applying data to improve your programs. She will use the outcome sequence chart introduced at the conference to walk you through the process of creating a dashboard for data collection, reporting, and ongoing communication.
It is recommended that participants who take this webinar also take this workshop training at the conference: Articulating Your Success
Since 2004, Debra has successfully re-designed the organization’s strategy and infrastructure. By focusing The Center for What Works on conducting and sharing sector-wide research, she ensures successful outcomes for nonprofits and funders.
Debra is an influential thought leader in the field of outcome measurement. As a Principal Investigator with the Urban Institute, she completed ground-breaking research to develop outcome frameworks that are currently used by a wide spectrum of nonprofit organizations.
She also designed and developed the Performance Measurement Toolkit and the Foundation Effectiveness Toolkit, inspiring hundreds of nonprofits and funders across the country to approach outcome measurement more easily and effectively. Debra’s expertise in assisting nonprofits to connect their strategic plans with actionable outcomes and indicators for improved internal management and increased external funding has made her a highly sought after advisor and speaker.

In today’s fundraising environment, individual skills, behavior, and abilities make the difference between hitting higher levels of fundraising or missing key financial goals. Bill has been in your shoes, taking action on a daily basis to raise funds in both the nonprofit and for-profit environments.
In this webinar, Bill will cover 12 key challenges fundraisers typically face and will offer specific strategies, tactics, and tools you can use to overcome obstacles and accomplish your fundraising goals. These are real ideas and actions you can take today to increase the potential investors (donors, sponsors, in-kind trade partners) of your organization.
Bill has made his mark as an entrepreneur and civic leader. As an entrepreneur, he has raised millions of dollars for companies in his capacity as Board member and owner. As a civic leader, he has raised millions of dollars for children’s organizations throughout the Denver area. The Denver Business Journal named Bill to its prestigious Forty Under 40 list and recognized one of his company’s (XploreNet) as the sixth Fastest Growing Privately Held Company in Colorado. An entrepreneur, says Bill, must believe so completely in an idea that you’ll work around the clock to bring it to fruition. An entrepreneur looks for great ideas or people with great talent, then finds ways to provide the vision, processes, and money to achieve success. Bill believes such great ideas can positively impact our lives, and that’s why he works so hard to bring them to market. Although he readily admits some might call this crazy, he calls it satisfying.
Like many successful entrepreneurs, Bill gives back to the community. Deeply committed to improving his community and others’ lives, Bill is active in leadership roles in multiple not-for-profit organizations. What motivates him? Helping kids. He believes when you help kids successfully navigate childhood, chances are they’ll become responsible adults and ultimately contribute to the community. During the past decade, Bill has applied the skills that made him a successful businessman to raise funds for non-profits. And countless Denver children have benefited. Bill loves the feeling of being a part of something much bigger than himself. He’s proud to contribute to the success of these organizations – and leave his mark on the community.

Organizational intelligence is about making wise, evidence-based decisions. So often, we make decisions based on gut feel, wasting precious resources because we do not understand what truly contributes to our success, and what deters from it. The key is to use quality intelligence to make informed, effective decisions that leverage your organization’s performance.
Intelligence comes in many forms for nonprofit organizations: economic outlook statistics, census data, industry best practices, and information generated from your own research (surveys, focus groups, etc.) - to name a few. This session will present the pros and cons of various types of intelligence, the principles required for conducting quality research, and the steps for converting solid data into sound decisions.
