How I Planned for My Nonprofit Sabbatical Leave & Preventing Burnout [Video]

Considering nonprofit sabbatical leave? Here’s my experience. #nonprofits #burnout #sabbatical Preventing burnout is not just ideal, it’s a must-have for nonprofit jobs. Nonprofit leaders are notorious for working intensely and overcoming big challenges while trying to help as many as we can, which puts us at greater risk of burnout. But a sabbatical, when feasible, can help people in nonprofit jobs rest, recover, and re-energize for the work ahead. In this video I share a little bit more about my own experience planning a nonprofit sabbatical and share some steps and tips for you to plan your own nonprofit sabbatical leave.FOUNDER TO FULL-TIME: Check out my trainings and blog on starting a nonprofit or social enterprise at http://foundertofulltime.com/ // WHAT TO WATCH NEXT Starting a Nonprofit: Your Basic Compliance Checklist!https://youtu.be/28_vAxobgtoHow to Manage Stress and Avoid Burnout as a Change Makerhttps://youtu.be/AiUJaH8IbjwTime Management Tips from a Nonprofit Executive Directorhttps://youtu.be/-Tu7ywezfnM// CHAPTERS00:00 Welcome!02:20 Symptoms of Burnout03:44 Recap: What is a Nonprofit Sabbatical?05:08 Why a Sabbatical is important10:38 My own Sabbatical reflections13:48 Considerations to plan a Sabbatical// MORE ABOUT ME Hi!

Are Your Systems For Managing Crisis or Success? | David Higgins with Tracy Vanderneck – Phil Com [Video]

David Higgins and Tracy Vanderneck discuss a pervasive issue that many nonprofits find themselves in on a daily basis: Firefighting. No, not the red fire truck type. This type of firefighting comes in the form of future planning neglect, ununified internal and external storytelling, and trying to operate in a vacuum. Tracy dives into how nonprofit leaders can stop managing crises, and move to managing success. As a chronic blogger and advocate of knowledge-sharing, Tracy packs this podcast with valuable, actionable steps nonprofit leaders can use to go from a heads down mentality to a forward thinking and systems driven organization. Tracy has 25 years of experience in fundraising, nonprofit leadership, and business development. She holds a Master of Science in Management (MSM) in Non-Profit Leadership, a Graduate Certificate in Teaching & Learning, is a Certified Fundraising Executive (CFRE), and is an Association of Fundraising Professionals (AFP) Master Trainer. Needless to say, Tracy knows a thing or two about fundraising. Tracy and David highlight innovative nonprofit fundraising methods that yielded great success. From pivoting to online cooking classes, a 12k car wash event, to a 100+ million dollar donation, they breakdown how small to midsize nonprofits can better utilize their employees and donor data to make forward thinking decisions that can help remove the daily crisis management mindset. Tune into this week’s nonprofit podcast featuring Tracy Vanderneck on how to move from crisis management to managing success.Quick Glance: 4:25 Intro to Tracy Vanderneck8:05 What has a masters in nonprofit management taught you?12:55 What is working in fundraising now.18:45 Fundraising funnel examples.27:25 3 things leaders must embrace.41:55 built for crisis VS built for success.48:20 nonprofit systems of success.Nonprofit Shoutouts:Habitat for Humanity – Pine Belt Mississippi: https://www.habitat.org/us-ms/hattiesburg/hfh-pine-belt Hub City Farmers Market: https://www.hubcityfm.org/ Learn more on our website: http://thenonprofitpodcast.org/ Order David Higgins new book Demystifying Fundraising Funnels: A Digital Marketing Blueprint to Fund Your Non-Profit: https://amzn.to/3HPv4fK Learn more about Tracy and her mission here: https://www.phil-com.com/ David Higgins and Tracy Vanderneck discuss a pervasive issue that many nonprofits find themselves in on a daily basis: Firefighting.
