Training and Workshop Services
Curious what the highest returning investment would be with your funds? Offering top-shelf training for your team solves problems proactively, increases morale and engagement, and helps generate that performance you are hoping for. If you see training as an expense, we are probably not a good fit for you. If you see training as an essential investment in your people that you are excited to offer, then we will be a great partner to help you deliver that.
Any training can be custom fit to your timeframe (60 minutes to a few hours) or split into multiple sessions. We prefer to train live but can do this via video conference as well, which also saves on expenses. We can design a custom training for your team, but some of the ones we have offered include:
Team Performance Workshop
Investing in your people will help them be excited about investing in your organization. Learn about team performance best practices, techniques for team development, pitfalls that rob teams of cohesion and productivity, and tools for team self-assessment.
Using the Enneagram to Improve Communication and Empathy
The Enneagram has become one of the most used personality profile tools and is a very powerful process to drive increased empathy among a team, increase self-awareness, and improve communication.
Program Design Workshop
Learn about best practices for crafting a strong theory of change and program design that works, enhance impact measurement, and find new ways to drive organizational learning.
Fundraising Workshop
If you struggle to raise funds and don’t want to resort to schmoozy, high-pressure tactics to create resources, there is another way. Learn techniques and strategies for fundraising in a way that is natural, fits within your normal rhythms, and produces results.
Operations and Administration Workshop
Very few people start an organization because they love administration but it is essential to a well-run company. This workshop will help you assess areas that need to be overhauled, guide you into best practices, and give you the tools you need to become a well-run non-profit.
Financial Management Workshop
Managing cash flow, understanding financial reporting, producing reports and dashboards, knowing how to provide accurate analysis of your financial position to your team and board – all of these are essential functions that can be learned in a day.
Healthy Culture Workshop
If your organization was a car, your culture would be the engine. Take a day to work through all of the essential elements of a healthy culture and walk away with practical tools to help your team embody that desired culture going forward.
Board and Governance Workshop
Turn your dreaded board meetings into places of meaningful dialogue, helpful brainstorming, and supportive guidance for your mission. We’ll cover everything from preparing a board docket and agenda, tips for great board meetings, board member selection, making committees useful, and tactics for board transitions or conflicts.
