SUMMARY:From Hunches in Bunches to Data Driven Decisions
DESCRIPTION:Course Description:  \nDo you ever find yourself sitting in a Dr Seuss book? “Its awfully awfully awful when you can’t make up your mind! Oh\, you get so many hunches that you don’t know ever quite if the right hunch is the wrong hunch? Then the wrong hunch might be right!” \nThe commitment to move away from hunches to data-driven is fueled by intentional data strategy\, data literacy\, and data hygiene… and it is everyone in the organization’s responsibility to contribute. \nIn this session we will: \n• Discuss the foundation of people\, process\, and technology. \n• Consider the impact of change management methodology as catalyst. \n• Define the different variables in the success formula: (data governance\, data literacy\, data hygiene\, data visualizations\, and others). \n• Evaluate the positives and pitfalls of starting with governance\, visualization\, and/or both. \n• Facilitate sharing amongst peers – excellent and not-as-excellent experiences. \n• Highlight different key roles\, including who is ‘accountable’ for success. \n• Assess with a four-pillar model: Collect\, Connect\, Protect\, and Respect. \n• Ensure an ecumenical approach across the organization\, collaborative across teams\, inclusive of different levels of experience and perspective\, and not “IT-only” or “Marketing-only”. \n• Recap participant insights and takeaways for the benefit of all. \n  \nLearning Objectives: \nDescribe the metrics they are using (or will use) to determine success in their data-driven-decision initiatives. \nApply the four-pillar model (Collect\, Connect\, Protect\, and Respect) to evaluate their data-driven-decision initiatives. \nConstruct at least three actionable next-steps for their data-driven-decision initiatives. \n  \nTo Watch this Webinar on the Media Library CLICK HERE!

SUMMARY:A CEO’s Guide to IT Teams\, Tech Capacity & Strategic Impact
DESCRIPTION:Course Description:  \nIn many nonprofits\, IT is expected to be all things to all people—strategist\, troubleshooter\, project manager\, cybersecurity expert\, and helpdesk. But the reality is\, your IT department’s structure fundamentally shapes what is realistically achievable. This webinar is designed exclusively for nonprofit CEOs and executive leaders to demystify the capabilities of different IT team models—whether you have a fully outsourced setup\, a solo tech generalist\, or an internal team. \n  \nLearning Objectives: \nDevelop a clear framework to understand IT department’s structure and limitations. \nCompare expected outcomes from different IT team sizes using an evaluation matrix. \nDevelop strategies for improving communication\, trust\, and alignment between executives and IT staff. \n  \nTo Watch this Webinar on the Media Library CLICK HERE! \n \n
