National Council of Nonprofits’ Post

Thank you Kevin Chi, CFRE for sharing your story and what an honour to be recognized. 🙏❤️🙏 Leadership and mentorship are two pivotal roles that deeply resonate with my understanding of personal and professional development. To me, leadership embodies the ability to guide and inspire others towards a shared goal. It’s not merely about holding a position of authority; rather, it's the art of motivating people to achieve their best, creating an environment where everyone feels valued and empowered. Effective leaders are visionaries who foster trust and collaboration, and who are adept at navigating challenges while maintaining a clear focus on their vision. Mentorship complements leadership by providing a more personal, one-on-one relationship aimed at nurturing the growth and development of someone else. A mentor is both a guide and a sounding board, dedicated to helping mentees explore their potential and overcome obstacles. This relationship is built on trust, respect, and mutual commitment. As a mentor, the role involves listening, providing feedback, and sharing experiences and knowledge that can help mentees develop their own paths to success. Together, leadership and mentorship encapsulate a powerful dynamic. While leadership focuses on directing and energizing a group, mentorship zeroes in on the individual’s journey. Both roles have the profound ability to impact lives and shape futures. In essence, they reflect a commitment to uplifting others and exemplify the selfless aspect of human interaction where the ultimate reward is seeing others succeed.

🎯 Ever wondered how #nonprofits work behind the scenes? It’s not all about #fundraising! Here’s a simple breakdown of the three key groups that make it all happen: 💼 1. Board of Directors The big-picture thinkers! They set the #vision, make major decisions, establish a budget and ensure the nonprofit stays true to its mission. 🧭 ------------------------------------ 👩💻 2. Staff The everyday heroes. From senior leaders to program managers, fundraisers, and interns, they handle daily operations and turn plans into action. 💪✨ #Kudos to all of my World Vision Canada colleagues. ------------------------------------ 🤝 3. #Volunteers The heart and hands of the nonprofit. They bring passion, skills, and time to support the #mission and amplify the impact. ❤️ (Right, Cynthia Hove?) ------------------------------------ Nonprofits aren’t just about passion—they’re powered by teamwork and structure. 👉 If you had to choose one of these roles, which would you love to take on? Let’s chat in the comments! ⬇️

This week I had the pleasure of attending CASE webinar hosted by Jenny Cooke Smith & Nicholas Campisi from Council for Advancement and Support of Education. As someone new to Advancement, this session "CASE Insights on Alumni Engagement Key Findings FY2023", provided clear direction on the importance of strategic integration of Alumni data for effective Alumni engagement. Below are key takeaways: - Adding an alumni relation’s staff member correlates with a nearly 4% increase in alumni donors. - Comprehensive data collection and strategic benchmarking are essential tools for effective alumni engagement. - Alumni engagement in philanthropic activities generally increases the longer they have been out of school. - Recent alumni (0-5 years out) show a higher preference for experiential (alumni events etc.) and communication-based engagement rather than volunteering or philanthropy.
