067: Leveraging Technology as a Nonprofit Leader (Kim Lanphear) 

SUMMARY

While technology may or may not be your area of expertise as a nonprofit leader, current conditions certainly force you to be more proficient. Whether you’re navigating virtual board and staff meetings, trying to deliver your programs in a socially-distant manner, or contemplating your biggest fundraising event now being virtual, you’re having to maximize the technologies available to you. Someone who really understands the challenges and opportunities inherent in your nonprofit’s technology is Kim Lanphear, the CEO of Apparo, who is helping nonprofits navigate their technology and business processes so they can do the important work their mission requires.  On episode #67 of the Path, Kim provides a wealth of information and ideas to help you navigate your organization’s technology, put the right processes in place, and how you can do your virtual fundraising event more effectively.  (Hint: Apparo’s virtual event did better than the previous year’s live one!).
