This full-day workshop, led by Dodge’s former President and CEO, sets the stage for the entire Board Leadership Series by exploring essential questions of organizational development, culture, and performance. Using The Performance Imperative (a new tool created by 150+ experts and practitioners in the social sector), David will give an overview of the mutually-reinforcing (and daunting) tasks that organizations have to "get right:" leadership; management; program design; financial sustainability; culture; and assessment.  Then he will focus on two foundational mental models: nonprofit lifecycles, which helps explain the predictable challenges that nonprofit staff and board members face as they grow and evolve; and formative assessment, which encourages us how to plan backwards from a vision of success, and create ways to “measure what matters” most to your organization. We will learn how to think about change as something we design, rather than something that happens to us, and establish a learning culture that will help your organization prepare for the transformative impact of the workshops to follow.
 
 
Breakfast and lunch are provided at these workshops, which are held in locations which are ADA accessible. If you have any dietary restrictions or any other questions, please contact our Technical Assistance and Office Manager, Judy Ha Kim, at jkim@grdodge.org or 973-695-1171.
