Show Notes

On August 3rd, 2020, Bob McCartney authored the article, Nonprofits in trouble: One-third of organizations may not survive pandemic, recession for The Washington Post. 

This article is a sobering assessment of the health and sustainability of nonprofit organizations in the Washington, D.C. metro area. But more than that, it's likely a canary in a coal mine for our entire sector on a national scale. 

Bob's conversations with nonprofit leaders, institutional funders and other officials in the sector clearly indicate that while many organizations have survived the COVID crisis successfully, thousands of organizations were not prepared for this. 

In this episode we delve deeper into Bob's article and talk about the underlying challenges faced by nonprofit organizations right now -- and the risks the sector faces in the near future.

This is a conversation you don't want to miss!

A special offer from our episode sponsor, Velocity Strategy Solutions:

Employee performance and productivity is the highest ranked concern for CEO's. This is true in the nonprofit sector just as much as it is in the for profit sector. That's why we're so excited to partner with Velocity Strategy Solutions to offer nonprofit leaders a special opportunity to gain an unfair talent advantage in their organizations.
