Evaluation is a journey of discovery. It invites us to be curious, a chance to learn, grow, and make our work even stronger. In this episode, Nancy and Sarah talk about how evaluation can help our nonprofits ask the right questions, invite our communities into discovering the answers, and uncover meaningful insights—without getting buried in data. They share simple, doable ways to move beyond surveys as the only way to collect information.

In this episode, Jordana Barrack, Executive Director of the Mighty Arrow Family Foundation, offers a compelling perspective on how funders can rethink philanthropy by centering empathy, trust, and long-term relationships in their work. The foundation, established by Kim Jordan, co-founder of New Belgium Brewing Company, is a family-led philanthropy focused on climate change, food systems, land and water stewardship, and social justice. With an annual disbursement of approximately $3.5 million and a planned sunset in 2040, the foundation aims to deploy its resources intentionally and meaningfully during its limited lifespan. A central focus of the conversation is the foundation's recent initiative, the Mighty Partners Report, which reflects a deep learning journey undertaken to better understand the lived experiences and needs of its grantees. Rather than adopting standard philanthropic norms, the foundation opted for direct engagement and honest dialogue with its partners. Through surveys and interviews, they uncovered high rates of burnout and a strong desire among grantees to connect and collaborate with one another—insights that shaped the launch of two new grant programs. The first, Nurturing Leadership Grants, offers flexible capacity-building support specifically focused on people, rather than projects, within grantee organizations. The second, Transformational Capacity Grants, is structured around referrals—grantees are invited to nominate other organizations that might benefit from similar support. This peer-referral model not only decentralizes the application process but also broadens the foundation's network in a way that is organically diverse and mission-aligned. Barrack emphasizes the value of proximity to grantees and fostering candid, human connections. Simply asking nonprofit leaders how they're doing on a personal level, she notes, can often be unexpectedly powerful, especially in a sector where funders rarely engage with grantees as whole people. The foundation's approach underscores the idea that genuine partnership requires both trust and a willingness to step away from traditional, transactional funding models.

While the world presses in on us for children to learn to read in preschool and be able to do high-level math early on, the research shows it's actually better to slow down and wait for developmental readiness. In this encore episode, Carole shares about the work of Dr. Raymond Moore and his idea that late is better than early. You'll hear: - Why we need to look at the facts instead of the neighbors. - The socialization our children really need. - How kindergarten has become the new first grade. - Why attachment plays a part in effective education. - The stimulus of children's development and how to raise a lifelong learner.RESOURCES+Better Late Than Early by Dr. Raymond Moore+Build Your Family's Library: Grab our FREE book list here+Get our FREE ebook: 5 Essential Parts of a Great Education.+Attend one of our upcoming seminars this year!+Click HERE for more information about consulting with Carole Joy Seid!CONNECTHomeschool Made Simple | Website | Seminars | Instagram | Facebook | PinterestMentioned in this episode:HMS EssentialsEverything you need to jump in!HMS Essentials Bundle

Here's a thoughtful rewrite: Navigating Disappointment: A Lifelong Learning Journey Disappointment is an unavoidable companion on life's path—for both parents and children. How we learn to process these moments can shape our resilience, emotional intelligence, and future success. Children experience disappointment differently at various developmental stages. A toddler's crushed cookie might feel like the end of the world, while a teenager's missed opportunity carries more complex emotional weight. Understanding disappointment requires addressing both the cognitive and emotional landscapes of the experience. The cognitive side involves helping children understand the situation rationally: Why didn't things go as expected? What can be learned? The emotional side requires validation, empathy, and gentle guidance through the very real feelings of sadness, frustration, or anger. Your role isn't to eliminate disappointment but to teach children how to move through it. By modeling healthy responses, providing emotional support, and helping them develop perspective, you're equipping them with a crucial life skill that extends far beyond the immediate moment of letdown.

As part of our ongoing collaboration with Central Square Foundation - we're excited to bring to you the fifth and the final part of this series where we will speak to educators and academicians who rely on the need for effective assessment techniques at key stages of a child's learning journey. These assessments form the backbone of the various learning interventions and activities carried out by a teacher in the classroom. Experts argue that evaluating the academic journey of a student at crucial transition points such as grades 3, 5, and 8 is key to mapping their learning journey. This facilitates early intervention, helps identify gaps in student's learning and informs teachers to develop strategies to address these gaps, thereby ensuring students are adequately prepared to transition to higher grades. In this episode, Niharika Nanda will be in conversation with Dr. Jayshree Oza, Senior Advisor, CSF and Sridhar Rajagopalan, Co-founder & Chief Learning Officer, Educational Initiatives. Hosted and produced by Niharika NandaEdited and mixed by Suresh PawarFirst four episodes of our series with CSF:Episode 1Episode 2Episode 3Episode 4

How can we change and transform the education system through leadership? The Broad Center at the Yale School of Management fosters the ideas, policies, and leadership to help all students in K-12 public schools — particularly those from underserved communities — to learn and thrive.  Broad is a stellar example of the unique mission of Yale SOM: educating leaders for business and society. Since I feel connected and inspired by the mission, I appreciate how much the presence of Broad in my experience at Yale keeps me particularly connected and inspired by the noble and meaningful work of transforming the school system. In March of 2024, the Broad Fellows were part of an immersion learning experience with me. I love Broad and was inspired by the way they engaged in learning through an immersion intensive. This episode is a window into their learning experience in the interpersonal and group dynamics course.  Hanseul Kang, the executive director of the Broad Center, began her journey as a Broad Fellow. The Fellowship for Public Education Leadership is a program for public education leaders dedicated to strengthening public school systems and the communities they serve. In this episode, we also hear from current Broad Fellows: Xiomara Herman, Andrew McRae, and Jorge Robles. Key Topics: 01:48 Challenging our understanding of leadership: How the current definition of leadership is too narrow to change and transform the education system; 03:21 The limitations of defensive interpersonal dynamics: Managing complex interpersonal dynamics from a place of defensiveness or self-protection can limit leadership effectiveness; 04:49 Why the education system needs to be transformed: In addition to individual agency, there are structural forces that play a large part in the reality of many learners; 09:59 Building range and expanding leadership capacity: The hope and challenge of learning through experience; 13:30 Directing your learning as a leader: When you need to change and transform people, systems, and possibilities, it's not just about pedagogy, transaction, or expertise- it's also about your aspirations and how you show up; 20:35 Transforming the education sector: Reflecting and inquiring about the education sector and ways of learning that hold individuals as capable of growing as human beings.

Embarking on a journey of educational transformation, Katie Jo Berry joins us to share the heartfelt story of her departure from a career in psychiatry to championing her children's learning through homeschooling. Her narrative is a beacon for parents navigating the intricate choices in customizing their children's education. We converse about Katie's pivotal decision to homeschool her third child when conventional schooling systems fell short, a move that echoes the courage of countless parents who choose the road less traveled for their family's educational needs. As we peel back the layers of our homeschooling experiences, our discussion ventures into the evolution of teaching methods and curricula that have shaped our families. I recount the transition from a structured educational system to the fluid dynamics of homeschooling, a paradigm shift from test-centric learning to embracing the journey of knowledge. Katie and I also dissect the intrinsic values of the Charlotte Mason approach, the versatility of morning baskets, and the significance of fostering a child-centered educational atmosphere. Wrapping up our dialogue, we delve into the heart of homeschooling beyond academics—parenting. We address the misconceptions surrounding homeschooled children's social development and the critical role of family dynamics. Katie imparts her wisdom on boundary-setting and balancing work with education, highlighting that our identities as parents are enriched, not redefined, through homeschooling. We close by underscoring the essence of nurturing character and relationships, the bedrock of our homeschooling philosophy. Join us for a profound exploration into the world of bespoke education, where the individuality of each child guides the compass of learning.

Seneca, Marcus Aurelius, and Zeno all had something in common. As Stoics, they were all lifelong learners. As such, they had lots to say about the state of education and how it should be approached. As two college students who have learned great things from these men, we also have much to discuss about education.Tune in as we begin another analysis of modern education with helpful tips on maximizing your education's value.

Whether you're in high school or college, this knowledge guide will benefit anyone who uses it. Join us this week in our most profound discussion of modern education yet, and remember, “Wisdom is a right understanding, a faculty of discerning good from evil, what is to be chosen and what rejected; a judgment grounded upon the value of things, and not the common opinion of them.” - Seneca.Additionally, we have some exciting updates for the upcoming year! First and foremost, we are now officially streaming our podcast on Rumble. Be sure to check us out there if you haven't already.

Jean emphasizes that success is subjective and may not align with conventional notions. He offers a tip to disconnect from external influences and reconnect with one's purpose, akin to a metaphorical "fasting." By going into nature and seeking solitude, individuals can discover a deeper sense of purpose, ultimately redefining their own path to success in Scrum Mastery.
