We Are For Good Podcast - The Podcast for Nonprofits 226. Embracing New, Creative + Better Ways of Thinking, Planning + Working - Veronica LaFemina
Meet Veronica. Welp, it's happened. We're flummoxed. Veronica has made us believers in the one-sheet strategic plan. Seriously! She's advising nonprofits to move from "we've always done it this way" and "this is best practices" to embrace new, creative and better ways of thinking, planning, and working through a strategic plan. We all need new strategic plans in light of the pandemic, and Veronica's bringing in an entirely new way to think, build, activate, and continually review those plans🧐
