Show Notes

In this episode we talk with Sarah Olivieri, Founder of PivotGround about her Impact Method, a business framework designed specifically for nonprofits. We loved this conversation and getting to know Sarah. What's clear to us is that Sarah and her team are moving the needle for nonprofits in one of the most valuable and under-leveraged areas -- planning. Sarah debunks the idea of traditional strategic planning, and also challenges our industry's current focus on "data-driven" decision making. Our heads were spinning as we learned from Sarah and how she's helping nonprofits become more effective in the marketplace. You won't want to miss this episode!
