Nonprofits often hire from within because it allows them to find people who already know the culture and work of the organization. While we think this can be a great option, there are some real red flags that need to be known before taking this step. The difference between nonprofit staff and volunteers can make it difficult for someone to transition between the two.   Work with Ted and Lisa: www.legacybuildersintl.comCourses on Building Your Donors and Volunteers: courses.legacybuildersintl.com PLEASE NOTE //  Legal disclaimer:  This is not legal or financial advice.

The focus of getting things to simply work RIGHT NOW often overshadows most other concerns nonprofit leaders have. When working with donors and volunteers, it can be easy to try to get today to work with the people we have rather than think through how we can "future proof" our organization against the inevitable changes that come with time. Thankfully, we can make an impact today WHILE planning for growth and strength in the upcoming days, months, and years.   Hi! We are Ted and Lisa Snyder.

Passion is hugely important, especially when starting a nonprofit. But what do you do when the passion runs dry and the work FEELS like work? When nonprofit leaders and volunteers feel the passion leave, it is a scary time for a leader who is trying to decide whether to move forward to move on. Let's talk about The Passion Fallacy.   RESOURCES //The Nonprofit Leadership Academy has courses to help your nonprofit grow: https://nonprofitleadershipacademy.teachable.com/More About Us & Our Work: https://legacybuildersintl.com PLEASE NOTE //  Different states, guidelines, and nonprofit structures have different legal/financial/tax requirements.

We're Ted and Lisa Snyder, and between us have been nonprofit volunteers, leaders, staff, board members, and consultants. One something starts working, the time is perfect to use the momentum to make the next change in a much easier way. But... what's the next right change?

What happens when you clearly understand who you are trying to help, and are COMPLETELY WRONG about who can help you help them?

Of all the leadership principles that we've learned over and over again over the years, there is one that has transformed the work we do with nonprofits that we have only heard taught ONCE. We're Ted and Lisa Snyder, and between us have been nonprofit volunteers, leaders, staff, board members, and consultants. The rules we're talking about today is "The Rule of 3s and 10s". Whether you've been growing and you're starting to feel the wheels coming off or you're coming up to a new level of leadership, understanding this will give you valuable insight into what's going on behind-the-scenes as increasing numbers starts to put pressure on your systems and structures.

Events! If done correctly, these are the moments that will build and sustain your organization into the next 18 months. If done incorrectly, though, these can kill off your donors and your volunteerism We're Ted and Lisa Snyder, and between us have been nonprofit volunteers, leaders, staff, board members, and consultants. We have seen small events raise thousands and events with hundreds barely break even. We've seen free events make a huge impact for a nonprofit AND we've seen expensive galas make a huge impact for a nonprofit. The question about the success of the event is NOT "Was the event successful?". The question goes deeper than that, with an important focus on the upcoming weeks and months. Let's talk about it! Have a question for us about this? Email us at office@legacybuildersintl.com 

Every nonprofit we've come across is looking for a way to secure more donations and/or more donors. Maybe yours is different, but in case it's not... Have you ever considered which donors you're graced to reach and which ones might be actually pulling more out of your organization than the money they're putting in? We're Ted and Lisa Snyder, and between us have been nonprofit volunteers, leaders, staff, board members, and consultants. The people you are specifically graced to work with are the difference between an organization that feels like work and an organization that is working. This also applied to your donors! Today we're talking about identifying the donors that inherently "get you" so that your efforts have better impact in your fundraising. Have a question for us about this? Email us at office@legacybuildersintl.com 

Have you ever had a moment where someone asks what you're working on and everything in you wants to blurt out something impressive? Especially if you're feeling a little bit insecure? We've been there, and we get it. We're Ted and Lisa Snyder, and between us have been nonprofit volunteers, leaders, staff, board members, and consultants. The metric you want to blurt in that moment (and the underlying need to blurt) is a strong indicator that there's another metric that needs to be examined behind-the-scenes of your organization. But what is that metric? And how can we know if the metrics we are focused on are hurting or helping our organization? We're talking about that in this episode. Got more questions?

Transparency in organizations has always been important, and in an info-rich world with research able to be done by anyone in the world, it becomes even more so. We've seen over the years how organizations try to minimize issues thinking it'll be what looks best for the organization. However, the principles that guide these decisions were often born in an age prior to the internet being what it is today. So what does that mean for your organization? Let's talk about it!
