Today's guest is making a reappearance on The Nonprofit Lab! Laura Otten, Ph.D., is the founder and Director of La Salle University's Master of Science in Nonprofit Leadership and a tenured member of La Salle's faculty. She was the Executive Director of La Salle's Nonprofit Center from 2001 through May 2021, and brings over 50 years of experience in the nonprofit sector. As you'll hear at the end, we actually weren't planning for our conversation to be an episode for The Nonprofit Lab. Laura is one of our key advisors for MatchNice, and I was recording this call to share with my co-founders, but as you'll hear at the end of the episode I thought her feedback was too good not to share. In this episode I run through a variety of status quo practices in the nonprofit sector we've uncovered in our journey of discovery so far and get Laura's feedback on each; as we came to find, every single one of these status quo practices boils down to the categories of having a scarcity mindset vs abundance mindset across things like: fundraising, partnerships, mission delivery, technology adoption, and so much more.

“I’M A BLACK WOMAN WHO WRITES FOR BLACK WOMEN ABOUT BLACK WOMEN. PERIOD.” — Nikeshia Elise Williams Damien Lamar was compelled to speak more with this week’s guest who he originally met at a PB&J (Party Benefit & Jam) Jam Session at the Nonprofit Center of Northeast Florida a few weeks ago. There, Nikeshia Elise Williams presented her 20x20 slide and “spoke about the state of education and how despite decades of attempts at integration, schools are still segregated which has led specifically to the situation that Duval County School finds themselves in; with the fight over the half-cent sales tax, [and] the schools that it would benefit, and the political wrangling in the city over that issue.” She discussed the parallels of the education system in Chicago and feels the root cause are based on issues surrounded by race. “I feel like across the United States, teachers are taken for granted. They’re not protected. They don’t get paid well enough. They don’t get the credit for what they do (especially at the elementary or secondary level.) … We, as a nation need to take better care of our teachers because are literally taking care of our children.” About Nikeshia Elise Williams Nikesha Elise Williams is an Emmy award-winning news producer and author. She was born and raised in Chicago, Illinois, and attended The Florida State University where she graduated with a B.S. in Communication: Mass Media Studies and Honors English Creative Writing.
