Hello all!
In an effort to make our monthly thought leadership webinar series more of a monthly conversation, I've decided to open a discussion here in Community ahead of each new webinar to introduce the topic and start the conversation.
I'll provide a description of the webinar, link to any associated blogs we're posting, and the speaker's biographical information.
I invite you to ask questions that you'd like answered here or in the webinar; as well as to share any experiences you have relevant to the subject! I'll be inviting the speakers to join us here in the discussion both leading up to the webinar as well as for a post-webinar Q/A.
The September Blackbaud Grantmaking Thought Leadership Webinar is:
Too Much Tech? How to Streamline Your Solutions for Better Grantmaking and Operations
Thursday, September 28 at 11:00 a.m. ET (Registration here, click on the banner)
Tech overwhelm, anyone? In what ways does your current technology boost your team's efficiency and grantmaking outcomes--and in what ways does it hold you back? Join Elaine Gast Fawcett along with featured IT and grants management leaders Tony Lusiba from McKnight Foundation and Lara Hoke Kimberley from Exponent Partners, to talk about ways to boost efficiencies within your technology and grantmaking processes. We'll discuss ways to take inventory of your current tech stack and reduce redundancies, develop a clear criteria and process for choosing/onboarding new tech, and put the right solutions in place to support your teams and your grantee partners. Whether you work at a large or small-staffed grantmaking organization, you'll leave the webinar with actionable guidance on how to streamline tech solutions, create clear processes, and drive more internal and external impact.
