It is not too late to improve your organization's approach to the 2020 annual budget.
The Engaged Nonprofit Budget: How to Make it an Annual Strategic Moment
Dates: December 5, 2019 2:00 – 3:00 EST
Cost: $69.00
For most nonprofits, there is no more consistent planning process or tool than the annual budget. It captures our best thinking about the year to come, and once adopted, acts as the monthly or quarterly platform for so much discussion at the staff and board levels. Often, another year flies by, and we don’t take the time to review our approach to the process or the document itself with a critical eye.
This important session will cover:
- Strategic choice points in the design of your budget-building process. Who is involved? When? Why? How?
- Budget formatting options to better present nuances such as restricted funding and uses of various forms of capital
- Should the annual budget balance? Should it be revised mid-year? And other common points of debate
- How to use your budget to engage staff and board in analysis and decision-making year-round
Kate Barr and Jeanne Bell, who have teamed up before for NPQ, will guide you through an assessment of your current approach to the annual budget and share actionable recommendations for how to improve your annual budgeting process to better reflect your business model and promote the engagement and accountability of staff and board.
