Finance & Strategy: How One Informs The Other (Virtual)

September 23, 2026 9:15 AM - 11:15 AM (EDT)

Description

Your nonprofit’s financial statements tell a story. Knowing how to use your financial story to help inform and implement organizational strategies is a whole other thing. Uncovering the link between your current financials and your organization’s capacity to deliver on its mission in its current and future state is a key component of any successful nonprofit’s plan for long sustainability. This workshop will plant the seeds for how to do so.

Learning Objectives:

  • The difference between financial policies & procedures and financial strategy
  • The story financial statements tell about your organization and how that story can help inform strategic decisions
  • How to create a roadmap for organizational nimbleness by aligning financial goals with future operational plans.

Cost: $68 Members, $136 Non-Members
