Do Business Better - Or Go Out of Business: VAFRE Workshop
Make plans to join VAFRE on Tuesday, September 14th for our half-day workshop, Do Business Better – or Go Out of Business. Which Will Your Nonprofit Choose? with Simone P. Joyaux, ACFRE, at the Jepson Alumni Center at the University of Richmond.
The global economic crisis should serve as a wake-up call for doing business better. But such a tough wake-up call is really painful. And, far too many organizations aren’t waking up anyway. It’s past time to learn how to operate as a truly adaptive organization. It’s way past time for critical self-examination, learning, and change.
Attend this workshop and you can help build a stronger nonprofit for any time, all times, forever.
