The Nonprofit Lifecycle: Setting the Table for Success
About This Session:
Every nonprofit goes through stages of growth, and each stage brings unique opportunities and challenges. Understanding where your organization is today is the first step toward building the capacity needed for long-term success.
In this engaging session, Tiffanie Dillard, Founder and CEO of Avenir Consulting Partners, will introduce the Nonprofit Lifecycle framework developed by Susan Kenny Stevens, Ph.D. Using the simple yet powerful analogy of a table, participants will explore how mission and programs are supported by four essential organizational foundations: management, governance, financial resources, and administrative systems.
Whether your organization is just getting started, experiencing rapid growth, or preparing for its next chapter, you will gain practical insights to assess organizational health, identify areas for improvement, and prioritize the capacity-building efforts that will create a stronger, more sustainable nonprofit.
By the end of this session, participants will be able to:
- Identify the stages of the Nonprofit Lifecycle.
- Recognize the organizational capacities needed at each stage.
- Begin to assess their organization’s current strengths and challenges.
- Determine next steps to build a stronger, more sustainable nonprofit.
