Description
Nonprofit Culture, Communication, and Employee Retention.
What do all three have in common?
Establishing a winning culture and having clear, honest, and authentic communication are the keys to attracting and retaining employees who will want to contribute to your organization's success because they'll know you're invested in theirs.
That's why DMAW is proud to present this critical conversation featuring three renowned experts who will help transform your organization or company on all three fronts. In fact, we believe this conversation to be so critical that we're presenting it FREE as a service to the nonprofit sector.
This discussion will be a high powered lunch hour where leaders will learn:
- The state of employee culture inside the nonprofit sector
- How your organization can build a winning culture based on trust and collaboration
- Why empowering employees to establish personal brands are beneficial for BOTH employees and organizations alike
- Communication strategies to make your employees feel valued and motivated
- Keys for promoting a culture of work / life balance and mental fitness
- The benefits of breaking down internal silos and action items for how to do it
Plus, so much more in this COMPLIMENTARY WEBINAR fundraising leaders can't afford to miss:
Recruiting and retaining good talent is an ongoing challenge for the non-profit sector, but especially during a highly competitive labor market.
Having a steady workforce allows your organization to retain institutional memory and maintain a steady hand during challenging times.
Enhancing your internal culture and communication are the first steps towards getting there.
This is one lunch hour you won't want to work through...
