Takeaways
from Cause Camp 2018
NonProfit
Hub: 4.02.2018 by Hana Muslic
Yet
another Cause Camp is officially in the books. A special thanks to all who made
it the best one yet. If you were unable to attend, or if you want to relive
some of the magic, we’ve compiled our top takeaways from Cause Camp 2018. Stay
tuned for more highlights and additional information about next year’s
conference!
Overhead
myth
The overhead myth was once again a big topic at Cause
Camp. You know, “the false conception that financial ratios are a proxy for
overall nonprofit performance.”
Delighting
your donors
You
know when you go to a restaurant and you receive a mint when your check comes?
Or your car comes with a heated steering wheel? You didn’t go to that
restaurant or buy that car because of those extra things, but weren’t the added
bonuses so great? They’re what Simon Scriver calls “delights.”
Millennials
Kristen Hadeed started
her career at Student Maid when she was just a college student, and over the
last 10 years she’s helped make it a booming business. She spoke at Cause Camp
about her obsession with leadership and how the trials and tribulations she
faced as a young business owner helped her understand what her employees need
in the workplace.
Diversity
Yes,
we went there. Cause Camp 2018 saw us having that difficult conversation about
diversity in the workplace. Speakers Vu Le, Nancy Schwartz, Simone Joyaux and Kishshana Palmer spoke
on a panel and answered questions about the difference between equity and
equality, representation, avoiding tokenism and why we should seek to recruit
and retain diverse talent. READ
