2012 Capacity Building Programs for Nonprofits

Each year we review and incorporate feedback from attendees in our decisions related to topics and speakers to feature in our workshops. This past week we offered Business Plans that Stand Out. Today I received a thoughtful critique from an attendee that I wanted to share. It may be helpful to anyone considering registering for the repeated June 14th workshop.

Suzanne Smith "presented the information in a logical, organized and easy to understand manner, integrated participant issues and concerns, provided very in-depth, useful and meaningful information that can help organizations begin this process. I really appreciated: 1) her emphasis on looking at risk and mitigation from the "get go" even though it is not written until later; 2)the importance of primary and secondary research; and 3)the entire section on developing the financial model including financial analysis, knowing actual costs, overview of understanding P&L /income statements and ratio analysis."

Your comments and suggestions are always appreciated. A copy of 2012 available workshops can be viewed or downloaded from our website. www.healthfoundation.org/events
