"We attended this course not knowing quite what to expect, given that it was a "Masterclass" and that we already had some Governance experience. In essence, it was EXCELLENT. The facilitators' ability to make sometimes challenging concepts appropriate and relevant to our types of organisations and all experience levels was invaluable. Following this day, we have a long list of strategies that I am working through to implement, some quick and easy, others will take time. All will make us a far better organisation. I would highly recommend this day to any board or senior staff member."

Strategic decision making: Creating a culture of strategic awareness
Strategy without awareness is all too common in nonprofits. It results in organisations diverting resources from what matters most.

Beyond the Bottom Line - Creating diverse funding and revenue streams that drive community impact and sustainability
What if revenue streams were not where you thought they were? What if you no longer had to rely on one or two sources of funding? The way you view your nonprofit dictates what your options are and whether you are able to create the revenue streams you need. There are commercial possibilities in many of the things you do. This session will help you explore how you can create new services or products that will sustain your organisation far into the future and drive your vision, allowing you to truly make a difference in your community and move beyond the bottom line.
