40: What Do I Do With My Nonprofit’s Strategic Plan? (Andrew Hollo)
40: What Do I Do With My Nonprofit’s Strategic Plan? (Andrew Hollo)
SUMMARY
Given the uncertainty nonprofit leaders are facing right now, it’s no wonder many are dismissing long-range strategic plans as practically useless. However, Andrew Hollo brings a much needed and fresh perspective to this strategic planning dilemma and demonstrates that the work he has done across Australia is very much applicable to nonprofit leaders around the world. We discuss four existential questions every nonprofit should be asking itself, and three rules they should be following for success. Much to learn from this episode, as well as a multitude of book recommendations to consider, including Andrew’s fantastic From Impossible to Possible.
