However, recent research suggests that this is not the case. Instead, the question of who is most impacted by climate disasters has more to do with an individual’s pre-existing socioeconomic position and their corresponding access to disaster preparedness and recovery

Donor Cultivation. Customer Service. Are they the same, similar, or unrelated? Are your donors also your customers? This is an important question. Like philanthropy, customer service is uniquely American. Or, at least, American culture has put an indelible stamp on both. On a recent European trip, my spouse mentioned that the waiter never asked us how we’d like our meat cooked.

This week’s borrowed wisdom: The empathy device It’s interesting to realize that mirrors weren’t perfected until a few hundred years ago. Human beings spend a lot of time considering our own appearance and our own feelings and most of all, our own needs. The market produces a shift. When it’s a fair and open exchange, the customer gains in power. As a result, the selfish merchant or producer loses market share until they figure out how to build empathy into their work.

Younger generations of supporters are essential to your nonprofit’s future. Millennials (born between 1981-1996) and Generation Z (born between 1997-2012) are major audiences for nonprofits looking for dedicated donors and volunteers, as they tend to be socially conscious and want to create positive change by supporting causes that align with their values.
Speaker: Dave Sackett
Traditional budgeting and forecasting methods can no longer keep pace with today’s rapidly evolving business environment. Static budgets, rigid annual forecasts, and outdated financial models limit an organization’s ability to adapt to market shifts and economic uncertainty. To stay ahead, finance leaders must leverage a future-forward approach—one that leverages real-time data, predictive analytics, and continuous planning to drive smarter financial decisions.
