Cracking the Code (In-Person)
Tuesday, September 15, 2026 (9:15 AM - 12:15 PM) (EDT)
Description
Rather than customizing outcomes and outputs to meet grant requirements, learn how to more efficiently align your organization’s mission delivery efforts with outcomes that reconfirm your organization’s impact and overall value.
Learning Objectives:
- To raise awareness of how ecosystem mapping and your organization’s theory of change can help produce a more impactful Nonprofit Performance Model.
- To learn how defining your organization’s public/social value can streamline programmatic outcomes, outputs, inputs and overall organizational capacity.
- To better differentiate between data that reinforces impact vs. data that is “true but useless”.
