You Can’t Do It Alone: How to Attract and Keep Talent in Your Nonprofit Staff

December 4, 2018 by admin

Nonprofit organizations and NGOs depend on employees to accomplish their mission. Particular attention is given to clients, donors/funders, boards and volunteers. It’s important to remember that it’s the people in your organization who make the organization successful. This session will help provide answers to these questions:

  • How do you recruit top talent given a tight budget?
  • What can you do to keep your workplace attractive?
  • How do you communicate and show your desire to retain diverse talent?
  • Why is it vital to set clear expectations and empower employees to exceed them?
