How have the growing demands for “high-performance nonprofit” impacted some of the oldest philanthropic organizations in the United States? In this panel discussion, the CEOs of three organizations reflect upon the speed and tact with which they must adapt their strategies and directions in a new century. Peter Goldberg opens on the importance of fostering a culture of innovation, so that one might effectively bridge the gap between a “high touch” and a “high tech” strategy. Cathy Tisdale discusses both the value of having an iconic brand and the potential pitfalls of overextending legacy procedures. Jim Gibbons emphasizes the need for reinvention in nonprofit, such that you can remain relevant to the communities that you serve. Leadership 18 members Peter Goldberg, Cathy Tisdale, and Jim Gibbons were invited by the Center for Social Innovation’s Public Management Program and the Center for Leadership Development and Research at the Stanford Graduate School of Business. https://ssir.org/podcasts/entry/goldberg_tisdale_gibbons_leadership_trends_of_the_21st_century

Why have nonprofits historically been seen as workhorses rather than leaders in the search for social innovation?

Shern contextualizes the United States’ shortcomings and explains the need for equitable access to healthcare resources, both for preventative and treatment services. Snyder emphasizes the importance of a less monolithic measure of poverty and a more contemporary design for our current “safety net” solutions. “Leadership 18” members Dr. Shern and Father Snyder were invited by the Center for Social Innovation’s Public Management Program and the Center for Leadership Development and Research at the Stanford Graduate School of Business. https://ssir.org/podcasts/entry/dr._david_shern_fr._larry_snyder_the_role_of_the_voluntary_sector_in_the_er

The United States is currently experiencing “the worst economic episode since the Great Depression,” according to Joe Minarik, senior vice president of the Committee for Economic Development. In this audio lecture, Minarik talks about the macroeconomic perspective on the U.S. budget deficit and its impact on the US economy. He outlines how the budget situation has deteriorated to its current point, how attempts to stimulate the economy have increased our debt, and what it will take to change the situation.
