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.
