I’m a huge advocate of dedicating real time to annual planning. A good plan unlocks so many things for an organization (especially one that wants to grow without wasting time & money on the wrong things!) A good plan helps you: ✅ Hire the right people every time ✅ Raise money from the right people more easily ✅ Give your leadership team ownership of their work ✅ Focus on activities that really drive impact Growth without burning out isn’t magic. It’s just what happens when you have a clear, strong plan. 💪🏾 🚀 If you & your team want help nailing down your plan + hands on support implementing, apply to the Next Level Nonprofit Growth Accelerator https://lnkd.in/ev-ryD8e

My first monthly Investment Roundtable went excellently! I convened a small group of business leaders looking for significant growth or investment, and together we brainstormed solutions to their biggest challenges in a powerful 50 minutes. Each attendee provided questions beforehand, and my focus was to answer them with concrete next steps, provide some new questions they may not have thought of, and introduce them to networks of support. We had CEO's covering Investing, Charities, Agriculture, Manufacturing and Professional services; "Helped reduce my mental load" - "It can be lonely as the CEO, good to meet others leading their organisations" - "I loved that you positioned it to ask other questions - sometimes I'm not sure what I should be asking - some great points made"  These will be monthly, if you'd like to be invited to the next one, send me a message, and I'll let you know when it's happening.
