Description
Many nonprofit board members feel that being a good steward of money means that they shouldn't invest in themselves as a board or organization. In this episode, Nancy and Sarah challenge board members to let go that that scarcity mindset and recognize the value of investing in their organization. They talk about how people are our most important asset, and people need to feel competent and confident to be motivated in the work. They share a tip on how you might know if an investment is a good one. Our word of the week is invest-- did you know "invest" meant "to clothe" in the 16th Century? How are you going to clothe your organization to be out in the world? How steps will you take to ensure these clothes aren't threadbare but durable? Take a listen.  Enjoyed this episode?
