The Nonprofit Exodus: Thriving After the Worst-Case Departure Scenario
January 23 – 25, 2024
45% of nonprofit employees say they’ll likely leave their current job by 2025. Of those, 25% say they won’t stay in the nonprofit sector.
When a staff person leaves it creates turmoil.
Relationships they have with current and potential donors aren’t documented.
The elements that went into planning the event were all in their head.
It’s impossible to know where to start because you don’t know where they left off.
What if instead…
You had a system around donor management and tracked all conversations in a CRM.
A step-by-step checklist to plan your events lived inside a knowledge base.
There is a project management tool that allows you to see everything that’s going on so you can support your team and pick up when someone leaves (or just takes a vacation).
Burnout is a big reason why employees leave their jobs. One way to help prevent that is to ensure the team is supported. One way to do that is to have information and resources available to them. The best way to do that is create a knowledge base that holds all the processes and procedures necessary to do their job.
