Improving Operational Procedures at Your Nonprofit: Optimizing Operations

As a nonprofit grows and expands and changes over time, it is essential that operating procedures are optimized, streamlined and documented. Nonprofit leaders need to develop effective operating procedures to complete projects, manage programs and fulfill an organization’s mission. Striving to improve operational efficiency can help leaders understand how time is being utilized and which tasks are extremely cumbersome. The methods in which an organization operate should be well documented so that operating procedures and information doesn’t get lost from year to year or with leadership changes. The more procedures and programs your organization develops, the more important it is to document them. As an organization grows, staff take on different roles and one person will not know how to do everything. This workshop is ideal for organizations going through change, expanding, bringing on new staff or for organizations looking to improve their operating procedures.
