Not being able to effectively move from strategy to results is one of the reasons some nonprofits hesitate to jump into developing strategy. But there is a way to essentially guarantee results. Spend some time understanding what delivers good results and you will likely be more compelled to jump into building a good strategy. #strategy #nonprofitorganization #impact #nonprofitleadership #leadership https://lnkd.in/gxcXsNiV

Absolutely valid. In our work we’re seeing an abundance of mission-driven organizations pivoting to address systemic social issues and cross-cutting topics like data science or chronic disease. And not surprisingly, this shift has had implications on the hiring side, including fundraising. Specialized talent is needed in order to operate in the increasingly complex and nuanced landscape of transformational/principal giving. Systems change requires system thinkers. #EnterPSC #WeGotThis #ExecutiveSearch #PrincipalGiving #SystemsChange #FutureOfPhilanthropy #PurposeDriven #SearchExcellence #Impact #Nonprofits #HigherEd #Healthcare

Enterprise foundations uniquely combine long-term ownership with philanthropic activities, bringing value to both businesses and society. In our case, we at the LEO Foundation // LEO Fondet work to serve our charter and purpose: "Let’s pave the way for curing skin diseases," through our engaged ownership of LEO Pharma and by supporting independent skin research through our philanthropic activities. As new members of the Philea - Philanthropy Europe Association network ENEF, we look forward to working to increase awareness of the enterprise foundation model and its benefits – together with Carlsberg Foundation - Fondation Pierre Fabre - Interogo Foundation - Fundación ”la Caixa” -Lloyd's Register Foundation - Lundbeckfonden / Lundbeck Foundation - Novo Nordisk Foundation - Robert Bosch Stiftung - Villum Fonden and more. Maybe more entrepreneurs would be interested in creating foundations if they knew they could give back to society while ensuring the independence and longevity of their companies? Thank you, Steffen Pierini Lüders and Steen Thomsen, for highlighting this important topic! #EnterpriseFoundations #Philanthropy #SustainableBusiness #Letstalkaboutskin #dkfonde

Welcome to my third post on Principles of Effective Strategic Planning (https://bit.ly/3XryEFH). Last week (https://bit.ly/3zbvPRi), I talked about the importance of understanding what “strategy” really means. Today, I will start to talk about the principles for developing your plan. Check in every Tuesday for a new post on each of my strategic planning principles. Use this link to set up some time with us if you would like to discuss how Excelis can help you with your strategy or to share your thoughts on strategic planning: https://lnkd.in/eefWpJ4B #Strategy #Leadership #Nonprofit Principle 2: Think about who will speak into your strategy. A strategy that people have contributed to is one they are more likely to support and put into action. So, think early and carefully about who will speak into your strategy. Your board and senior leadership must be involved; that is a given. Your employees should be involved too. They can speak to practical details that can be hard to see with a top-down point of view. The size of your organization will determine how many of your employees you include in the process and how you engage them. It is not enough just to listen to them; you also need to explain how you will use what they tell you. You should also involve the stakeholders outside your organization that are impacted by your plan. Speaking to those who benefit from and support your services will give your strategic plan a depth it will not otherwise have. Talk to patients and patient advocates if you are disease-based foundation. Talk to corporate partners, major funders, and other champions of your organization. Learn from, or at least about, your competitors. One of the great strengths of academic institutions is the spirit of collegiality they show each other. I have always found them willing to speak openly with organizations that are competing with them for students, donors, grants, and the like. Secondary research, including competitor analysis and benchmarking, is an effective way to learn about organizations where, for whatever reason, direct conversations aren’t practical. In the same spirit, learn from similar organizations in different fields. If part of your strategy involves launching a program of large, collaborative grants or creating a venture philanthropy fund, for example, then speak to other nonprofits that have done the same thing, even if they focus on very different diseases. There is a limit to how many people you can involve in your strategic planning process, of course. They key is to think critically and with an open mind about whose perspectives you will include.

The Human Immunome Project (HIP) seeks a Vice President for Philanthropy to work with the Chief Executive Officer and Board of Directors to maintain and grow HIP's existing portfolio of industry and foundation donors and prospects while building a pipeline of individual major funders. As HIP puts its Scientific Strategic Plan into action, it is seeking a Vice President for Philanthropy to work closely with HIP leaders as they build the resources needed to complete a worldwide health resource that will change the paradigm of global human health. The Human Immunome Project is a global nonprofit organization dedicated to decoding and modeling the immune system. Together with its network of partners, HIP is pioneering the next frontier in health and medicine. HIP envisions a future that harnesses the power of the immune system to improve health for all. The human immune system is one of the most complex systems in the world—and one of its most important. It determines whether we survive infancy, which diseases we get, how we age, and how long we live. Yet its complexity has limited our ability to tap into its potential—until now. HIP was designed to meet this moment—to combine systems biology with the power of artificial intelligence, to decode and model the immune system to improve health for all.

Enterprise foundations like Robert Bosch Stiftung, Tata Trusts , Carlsberg Foundation and Novo Nordisk Foundation go beyond traditional philanthropy by leveraging their ownership of major companies to drive societal impact. They provide millions of well-paid jobs, ensure responsible supply chains, and engage in crucial public-private partnerships. In today's world, facing immense challenges like climate change and food security, the collaboration between philanthropy and corporate resources is more essential than ever. Enterprise foundations exemplify this synergy, channeling substantial dividends back into society for philanthropic purposes while fostering corporate competitiveness.

Health care organizations face an inflection point. With operating margins hovering at historically low levels, organizations urgently require funds not only to invest in core needs like physical plants, technology and clinical programs but also to fuel growth, to drive care transformation and to address expanding priorities around social drivers of health, access, equity and well-being. This makes it critical for all of the health care organization’s financial resources to be deployed to their most effective and best use; yet many organizations still diminish the potential impact of philanthropy by using charitable dollars for initiatives outside their strategy. Given how philanthropy deployment can significantly influence a health care organization’s ability to invest in future opportunities and outcomes, organizations should pursue alignment between strategy and philanthropy.
