From shelf to strategy: Building a living strategic plan Many charities and not-for-profits invest significant time and effort into developing strategic plans, only to find that they quickly become outdated or sit on a shelf instead of guiding day-to-day decisions. Explore how charities and not-for-profits can create strategic plans that are practical, adaptable, and truly actionable. Discover how to align organizational priorities with community needs and build a strategic plan that evolves alongside changing environments and funding realities. You’ll walk away with practical strategies to transform your strategic plan into a living framework that drives organizational focus, accountability, and meaningful results. 

From foundation to future: Strengthening your organization's financial function In an increasingly uncertain environment, strong financial leadership is essential for charities and not-for-profits seeking to grow their impact while maintaining long-term sustainability. Whether you're planning for growth or looking to make the most of your financial resources, informed financial decision-making can be a game changer. This session explores practical approaches to reserve planning, budgeting, capital projects, financing, investment decisions, and strategic growth. Learn how organizations can strengthen financial management, optimize resources, and make informed decisions that build a stronger financial foundation that position your organization for confidence, stability, and success.
