Our last Good Advice Over Coffee (GAOC) of this year was titled, “Strategic Planning and THE Best Visual to Help Focus Your Efforts.” We selected that topic, in part, due to the volume of strategic planning assignments we have been managing, but also because we find that most staff and volunteers see strategic planning as a chore – when it doesn’t have to be. We’ve learned that using a simple organizational chart can align the efforts of staff and board members to get this important job done.

Which of These Topics Interest You Most?
As part of our 25th year anniversary, we are launching Good Advice Over Coffee, an opportunity for a small group of like-minded cause champions to gather over a cup of coffee once a month to discuss topics that are key to our work together to advance community causes. We'll discuss matters that are in Project Partners' areas of expertise but we recognize that we'll learn as much from the conversation as anyone. We can't wait!
