This is a special episode and is part of podcasthon. Podcasthon is a global movement bringing podcasts and channels together in service of all the AMAZING not-for-profits out there. This discussion revolves around doing HR in this kind of organization. There are so many great NFPs out there, but I am on the board of Trinity Place Foundation of Alberta. They provide housing for people who are hard to house and those with limited income. Given current housing conditions and the personal struggles of some people, this is so so important! I was happy to interview Jennie Deneka, the dynamic and passionate CEO of TPFA. Jennie has a background in healthcare and has been at the helm of TPFA for 4 years. She is currently guiding the organization through a transformation and was happy to talk about what NFPs TRULY need from HR. LIke:- Be a generalist. Many NFPs are smaller so you will have to do a lot of things.- You have to be realistic. NFPs often have small budgets and you have to make do. - Maybe you can also be really creative and get some great things done- The mission of the organization will fuel you. It's not the only thing that matters, but it helps a lot. It was a pleasure to do this and highlight the great work of so many charities and not-for-profits in all of our communities filling gaps and helping critical causes in our communities. Consider donating to a charity in your community or to TPFA. You can reach TPFA at info@tpfa.ca

Not for profit organizations have different HR considerations. In part, their employee tend to be incredibly passionate about the organization's purpose. They'll often sacrifice their own well-being in service of it. And in many cases, they're expected to do it. Dimple Dhabalia, a lawyer, humanitarian and this week's guest, has a powerful story about what she learned after years of humanitarian service around the world. She burned out, but instead of doing what the rest of us would do, she wrote a book. Her book is called "Tell Me My Story: Challenging the Narrative of Service Before Self." For anyone working in service of people, there is a lot to learn from this thought-provoking conversation about unique consideration of doing HR in NFPs. For example: ❣️ "Being human is messy. And serving humanity is even messier." ❣️ Systems and culture drive employees to put the organization and their humanitarian service ahead of themselves. ❣️ It isn't all on the organization. Change starts with individuals. ❣️ Ultimately, individuals and organizations have to change together. ❣️ We (and especially women) are taught to give, give, give and that will only take us so far.

How Self-Reliance And Preparedness Enhance Your Life With Pam Greenhill

For this episode, Toni is joined by Pam Greenhill who runs the popular YT channel Bloo´s Self Reliance urban homesteading and wellness channel. Through it, and her hands-on workshops Pam teaches people how to grow, stock up on food bargains and preserve while on a budget. She is a qualified chef, nutritionist, dietitian, herbalist and naturopath, mother of 2 sons and foster mother of 72 children. KEY TAKEAWAYS Relying on supermarkets is expensive and makes it hard to eat well. Only a small % of the food they sell is healthy and nutritious. Teach your kids how to grow, cook and preserve food. That is how Pam learned. Community matters, you are stronger together. Even an unexpected big bill can leave you unable to afford food for a few months, so it makes sense to be prepared and have food for emergencies. Be prepared in little ways for example having a blanket in the car on cold days. Plan your meals and shop around for ingredients. Only some things in discount stores are cheaper. Make your washing powder. Live mindfully. BEST MOMENTS “Every spare inch of my front and back garden is growing food. “ “Preparedness is more about life happening but you not being inconvenienced by it. “ “What you can grow yourself, or what is locally grown is so completely different. It's like they were grown on different planets. . “ ABOUT THE GUEST Pam Greenhill is a dietician, nutritionist, herbalist, naturopath, retired chef, creator of the Rainwater Self Sufficiency program and owner of The Bloo Pixie Studios which is soon to be registered as a PCIC. A single parent at 17 with 2 sons, Pam has fostered 72+ children. Raising them in a home where growing and garden-to-table cooking is the norm. Teaching them life skills to help them on their healing journey. Pam runs Bloo's Self Reliance YT channel where she teaches self-sufficiency and helps those with few resources to plan for life's unexpected emergencies in a no-nonsense but light-hearted way. https://bloos.food.blog https://www.youtube.com/@BloosSelfReliance https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100087737348646 https://www.instagram.com/bloosselfreliance Threads - Bloo's Self-Reliance BlueSky - @thebloopixie.bsky.social https://www.tiktok.com/@bloos_self_reliance https://www.linkedin.com/in/thebloopixie WORK WITH ME If you're ready for greater clarity and confidence to create the freedom and alignment, you crave in business and life.

An Insight into Setting up and Running Effective Community Interest Organisations with Andrew Waite

Toni is joined by Andrew Waite who has spent most of his working life focused on adult education and chairing organizations like Mencap. For 30+ years he´s worked tirelessly for diversity and inclusion and now runs three community interest organizations all of which are having a significant positive impact. KEY TAKEAWAYS People in the LGBQT community still suffer a lot of bias. Most of which is subliminal or unconscious, but still harms the person subjected to it. Most companies are still not doing enough about diversity. Many jump on the bandwagon of inclusion events for social media purposes. Recruit properly, never employ someone or accept a volunteer because you are desperate. You have to know your clients to truly provide them with what they need. Lots of people taking lots of small steps is a highly effective way to make true change. When setting up a business you need to be realistic about how fast it will grow. In year 1 Andrew´s turnover was only £800. Not having a board or trustees to run everything past can make it easier to get things done, which is a benefit of setting up your own business. BEST MOMENTS “Pride is a protest. It's just actually turned into more of a celebration these days. “ “You have to stick to your principles … then you've got the respect of the community you want to work with. “ “Our job is to be wise on how we're spending our money because we do make a difference depending on where we put our money.” Andrew Waite Bio Andrew Waite is an entrepreneur with over 30 years of experience in education and community work across various sectors. He began his career in private sector training and later established SureStart Children's Centres for Westminster Council. After founding a charity to deliver adult training and childcare, Andrew became Chief Executive of a Mencap charity and Chair of Trustees for Barnet Mencap. He later founded Impactful Governance, a consultancy supporting charities, which led to the creation of two more organizations: Impactful Futures, focusing on environmental projects, and Impactful Lives, addressing LGBTQ+ issues and social change. www.ig-cic.org.uk www.il-org.uk WORK WITH ME If you're ready for greater clarity and confidence to create the freedom and alignment, you crave in business and life.

Kia ora,Welcome to Friday's Economy Watch where we follow the economic events and trends that affect Aotearoa/New Zealand.I'm David Chaston and this is the international edition from Interest.co.nz.Today we lead with global economic attention should have shifted to tomorrow's labour market report for September, but the US waterfront strike, and the Middle East tensions has sidelined it.However first in the US, there was a minor dip in the actual number of initial jobless claims last week, but a lesser dip than expected. There are now 1.62 mln people on these benefits, the lowest level since November 2023.And as you would expect, the level of job cuts in the US has remained very low.Tomorrow's non-farm payrolls labour market reports is expected to show a rise in payroll jobs of +130,000.Perhaps in something of surprise after the wavering factory PMI, the ISM services PMI came in much better than expected. It revealed the strongest growth in this sector since February 2023, amid faster increases in business activity and new orders. And that was mirrored by the internationally benchmarked version.US factory orders in August weren't as strong, little changed from the prior month to be -0.6% lower than the same month a year ago.The US East Coast & Gulf port strike is entering its third day, unresolved. But there are signs of progress in negotiations. The Canadian port strike has ended now.With China closed for holidays, all the equity market signals are being squeezed into Hong Kong which remains open. And that is not good for their property stocks which have had a heady run-up based on the stimulus signals. Now those property stocks are falling just as sharply as investors realise the fundamentals are just not there. And the expected ¥10 tln fiscal 'bazooka' has still be be launched. It is still being talked about and is still expected, but it won't happen till after the holiday week at the earliest.In the EU, there are signs that producer prices are rising again, up +0.4% in the bloc in August from July, but down -2.3% for the year to August which was a lesser rate of decline from the prior month.And later today, the EU is expected to approve an increase in tariffs to as much as 45% on electric cars imported from China, a move that officials said would help protect European carmakers from a glut of cheaper vehicles directly subsidised by Beijing.Those same subsidies have caused Toyota to pull back on developing EVs, because they are no longer commercial to produce.In China, price cuts along with those government subsidies helped the likes of BYD to boost monthly deliveries to all-time highs in September.Australian exports retreated slightly in August, but their imports retreated more, so their monthly merchandise trade surplus stayed at about AU$5.6 bln. But that was only because gold exports stayed strong boosted by sharply rising gold prices. Without those, their surplus would have halved.The latest IMF review of Australia isn't entirely convinced they have a sustainable disinflation trend underway and they warn them to prepare to do more to get price stability. They also say Australia needs to build many more houses in its efforts to tackle unaffordable housing and its pressures.Container freight rates fell another -5% last week as weak demand overcame the costs of the security issues in the Middle East. But that only dipped prices to 146% of pre-pandemic levels. Last week's weakness was mainly outbound China to Europe. The transpacific rate levels were unchanged. (Backhaul prices are now very low.) Bulk cargo freight rates slipped -2% last week after a long runup. They are now about +13% higher than year-ago levels, the same from the pre-pandemic period.The UST 10yr yield is now at just on 3.84% and up another +6 bps from yesterday. The price of gold will start today at US$2655/oz and up +US$5 from yesterday.Oil prices are up +US$3.50 at just on US$73.50/bbl in the US while the international Brent price is still just under US$77.50/bbl. Middle-East tensions are now starting to affect these prices as the never-ending 'retaliation' cycle shows no sign of ending.The Kiwi dollar starts today at 62.2 USc and down -½c from this time yesterday. Against the Aussie we are -20 bps lower at 90.8 AUc. Against the euro we are down -40 bps to 56.4 euro cents. That all means our TWI-5 starts today at just under 70, and down -30 bps from yesterday.The bitcoin price starts today at US$61,134 and down another -2.9% from this time yesterday.

Sarah is known for her pioneering work in de-biasing HR processes and fostering inclusive environments where diversity thrives. KEY TAKEAWAYS Everyone has biases. The lack of diversity at the top demonstrates that there is a lack of equality in the workplace. Inequality outside of work plays a significant role in inequality at work. If you take on the bulk of domestic chores, and child and elder care duties, you don´t have as much time and energy left for work. Plan for what you want to do in your career. You don´t have to be liked to do well, you have to be respected. Get yourself seen - network with those above you and people outside of your firm. To get to the top you need a sponsor. Be authentic and do work that you enjoy. BEST MOMENTS “None of us are as inclusive as we think we are. “ “It takes certain people to sit above the parapet to get things done. “ “My husband would say I am stubborn. I say I am persistent. “ THE GUEST Sarah Churchman is a pioneering global DEI and Workplace Wellbeing leader with over 20 years of experience in professional services.

Liz Jaluague – The Amazing Power of Mentorship and Gratitude

Every person needs a mentor for personal and career growth.Bio:Liz Jaluague is a Toronto-based cybersecurity engineer and Canadian Army reservist. She earned a BSc in Biochemistry and a postgraduate certificate in Computer Security and Digital Forensics, and has been a non-profit leader in seven different organizations since the age of 19, currently volunteering with a NFP cybersecurity organization. She believes in the power of mentorship from her own experiences, Liz consistently commits her time to guiding others along their professional paths. Links:LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/existentializm/ Quotes:“When you're constantly learning different skills, you kind of remember that everybody is a different level, and it's a humbling experience.”Episode Highlights:On today's episode, we delve into the captivating story of Liz Jaluague. From navigating cultural experiences to challenging conventional career paths, Liz shares her journey of resilience, determination, and growth. She shares insights into the ethical implications of cybersecurity, the power of mentorship, and the impact of cultural influences on leadership. Childhood Memories:Liz grew up in a Filipino family in Toronto. She had a great understanding of both English and Tagalog. In Tagalog, there are suffixes that one uses when addressing people older than them to show respect. At some point, Liz started questioning why she wasn't accorded the same respect as a young person. She dropped the suffixes, and it caused her issues with her parents. A year or two down the line, her parents came to term with it. Later in her own life, she came to value the respect accorded to elders and now sees both sides of the issue.Cultural Influences:Growing up, Liz had a desire to learn new things and really valued the learning culture. She was able to grasp a lot of new things but learned later on that she couldn't ace everything and became more selective with her learning and more humble in her approach to others.Liz's parents had her much later in life which gave her an opportunity to learn from her older cousins.Influential Groups:After university, Liz volunteered in several NFP organizations, currently with a cybersecurity non-profit. Looking back at her leadership journey with the NFPs, Liz realized that the people she most admired had a sense of purpose, and in every job, she connected with the mission and vision of the organization. Liz vividly remembers a time when she was in Las Vegas for a conference and she recognized one of the sponsors. She walked up to him and thanked him for giving her the opportunity to make friends working in that organization. The simple act of gratitude gave Liz a mentor.Personality and Temperaments:Liz describes herself as a pessimistic optimist. By nature, she looked at things glass half empty since her family didn't have a lot of material means. On the flip side, Liz learned to adapt and understand that things always work out in the end.Cultural Epiphanies:In Belgium and the Netherlands, Liz began to consider cultural differences through the experience of a glass of water in restaurants and different types of door locks in AirBNBs. What brings out the best in Liz?:Liz loves working with people who are authentically themselves. She is not a fan of hierarchy. Soapbox Moment:Do you have a question on cybersecurity? Liz invites you to send her a message on LinkedIn, and she will be more than willing to answer the question.Support the show

Welcome to The Nonlinear Library, where we use Text-to-Speech software to convert the best writing from the Rationalist and EA communities into audio. This is: Resources for farmed animal advocacy: 2023 roundup, published by SofiaBalderson on December 29, 2023 on The Effective Altruism Forum. Tl;dr - This is a curated and useful list of farmed animal advocacy resources that came out in 2023. We (Impactful Animal Advocacy) sent this compilation out in our free bi-weekly newsletter and thought it might be helpful to others in the EA community. There is is not a comprehensive collection of all resources, but if we missed any that you found significant from 2023, feel free to add as a comment. Enjoy and here is to even more impact for the animals in 2024! Acknowledgements: thanks so much to our Comms Lead Allison Agnello for this edition, as well as our readers, who viewed this newsletter 20,000 times in 2023! Themes Over the past 12 months of curating Impactful Animal Advocacy (IAA) newsletters, we've noticed several trends. Here are two that are prominent in our collection of 2023 resources: Movement infrastructure In the animal advocacy movement's growth this year, we've seen an increase in services provided directly to animal advocates or organizations. There has been so many new initiatives that we developed a Meta resources wiki to keep track of them all! This expansion reflects a recognition of the diverse needs within the community and how projects can benefit from support and area specialization. Here are a few categories of increased infrastructure: New meta organizations ( The Mission Motor, NFPs.AI, us!) Advocate training courses ( See section below) Supporting groups in developing countries ( Animal Advocacy Africa, Good Growth, Thrive) Refining how we measure and compare across species Given the large number of possible ways to help animals, selecting the most impactful approach can be challenging. This year, we've witnessed a increase in research accessibility and applicability for advocates. This is not just about providing information - it's about helping us integrate this knowledge into practical strategies. As a result, advocates may be better equipped to make informed decisions on where to focus their efforts across different species and geographic regions. How one might compare welfare across species ( Moral Weight Project sequence) How much pain do different species endure ( Welfare Footprint Project) - watch the recording of the workshop we hosted for them here How bad is brief, severe pains versus chronic, milder pains ( Dimensions of Pain) How many animals are impacted, and where ( Our World in Data) Updates we found helpful So much has happened this year.

For the first time ever[00:08:59] Not gone. If you're listening NFPs are not gone, they're just getting started[00:11:58] The best way to think about cryptoids is I like to describe it is you take a a toy company like Mattel and a gaming company like Nintendo. Yeah. If those 2 companies had a baby, and it was born on the blockchain, it would be cryptos, and that's kind of what we're building[00:12:30] As somebody that's creating IP in in building something from scratch, from the ground up. I don't like to perceive what we're building as investments. I like to to build something with fun and fandom at the forefront and enjoyment and entertainmentAll Quotes[00:10:49] So here's my Donatello, right, from Ninja Turtles[00:03:49] So every other toy company basically copied the blind bag model[00:12:30] As somebody that's creating IP in building something from scratch, from the ground up. I don't like to perceive what we're building as investments. I like to build something with fun and fandom at the forefront and enjoyment and entertainment[00:08:59] Not gone. If you're listening NFPs are not gone, they're just getting started[00:03:21] I was spending hundreds, if not thousands of dollars on these toys, because you're a good dad[00:08:33] I believe in what you're building because I've seen you build stuff and sell stuff and move on to what's next on there and as an innovator and a creator and just a brilliant mind on where we're at with technology[00:11:58] The best way to think about cryptoids is that you take a toy company like Mattel and a gaming company like Nintendo. Yeah. If those 2 companies had a baby, and it was born on the blockchain, it would be cryptos, and that's kind of what we're building. I love that[00:06:21] We had this little side project from 2018 to 2020. Nobody cared about it whatsoever[00:09:58] The Star Wars Unboxing experience is a whole other level. Like, this is like, we put our hardened souls into that[00:13:16] And for us, we wanna start with fun, fandom, enjoyment, And then look if we do those things well, then they should be worth something 1 day just like, you know, the Pokemon company. Right? When they created the first, you know, Pokemon sets of cards in 19 99, they didn't think that a Charizard was gonna be worth a million dollars[00:06:02] Let me build a passion project with my daughter[00:05:23] Here's this multi-billion dollar segment of the toy industry. That's predicated on collectability and scarcity[00:02:18] This whole thing was really inspired by my 10-year-old daughter Victoria. At the time, she was 6 years old. And this was back in, like[00:07:29] Here's this passion project called Crypt Toys. Now we need a real company behind it[00:05:28] Here's this thing that Fred's talking about, this blockchain NFT thing, we could now combine the 2 and do digital toys. For the first time ever[00:02:50] So my daughter started to get obsessed. Again, she had just turned 6. She was obsessed with these things called LOL Surprise dolls.[00:07:10] The world started taking NFTs and digital collectibles seriously.[00:00:31] I mean, last time you and I connected podcasts wise. Right. It was on lessons via leaders, which I we were just tracking before the interview was a real big motivation after I saw your little podcast studio setup, Like, I need to do that, and I went on to do that. So, it's all your fault, Will.[00:00:05] This is the Beyond The Story podcast. A show that goes way beyond the story[00:11:04] We wanna give both modalities here. Yeah. Oh, that's scary.

In this episode of Executive with a Cause, host Tammy Ven Dange chats with Chris Hatherly of the Academy of the Social Sciences in Australia. Like many Not for Profits, The Academy's funding sources include government grants. Chris shares his experience adjusting to changes in government funding models and how the organisation is reducing their reliance on a source that can change with government agendas. Chris also talks about the organisation's transition from a secretary to a CEO approach and how they manage to work with high-profile members to create a cohesive strategy for lobbying. We hear how regular, coordinated efforts are more successful than once-off interactions with policy-makers, and Chris provides further tips on how to build influential relationships with government members. Finally, Chris explains how he has tailored Salesforce to handle their complex member election process and the benefits of customising the platform for grant management. Chris also outlines his interest in innovative employee benefits, as Not for Profits face the continual challenge of attracting quality talent in a competitive labour market.
