Crisis as Catalyst: A Conversation Starter for Reimagining What’s Next

This tool is meant to guide discussion of the role civil society institutions play in disasters and crises. With funders—specifically foundations—as its primary audience, this conversation starter challenges us all to expand our understanding of “disaster,” rethink how to support civil society institutions during disaster response and re-imagine the role those institutions could play in strengthening civic and community health in recovery, mitigation, and preparedness.

Meeting Makeover Kit

When was the last time you heard someone say, “I love meetings!”?

My guess is, probably never. In fact, I doubt you’ve said it yourself, even about the meetings you lead.

My theory is that people don’t hate meetings. They just hate bad meetings – and, sadly, most meetings are pretty bad.

While I don’t love all meetings, I do love helping people make their meetings better.

If your meetings need a makeover, enter your email below for a free copy of my Meeting Makeover Kit.

Quarterly Momentum Maker Worksheet

I bet you’ve been down this road before . . . you set ambitious and powerful goals but then something changes — revenue goes down or key staff leave or, even worse, the status quo is just too strong.

I’ve experienced the same thing as a leader. For too many years, I helped clients set bold goals and watched them enthusiastically launch their big plans, only to end up frustrated and falling short until  I realized the difference between goal setters and goal getters.

Enter your email below for a free copy of my Quarterly Momentum Maker Worksheet, a tool built on that difference.

AWF was at ground zero with corporate partnerships when we first started working with CSR Communications. Nancy was brought in to do a full evaluation for potential and where we could take the program. She helped us create a very clear strategic plan for the corporate program, coalescing a clear vision across global offices, a short prospect list, and key pitches or focal target points for our program.
