Amber Smith’s guide to making a nonprofit last is like prepping your car for a cross-country road trip. First, you need a detailed map and a well-stocked glove compartment (your playbook and documentation). Assemble a crew that knows how to handle every type of road, from potholes to smooth highways (your skilled team and leadership). Keep your GPS updated with the latest routes (keep job descriptions and resumes fresh). Set up a pit crew (Succession Planning Committee) ready to swap out tires and refill fluids as needed (manage key roles and hiring criteria). With these strategies, your nonprofit will be cruising smoothly towards its destination, no matter what the road throws at it. For a full breakdown of this roadmap, check out the video!
