For many nonprofit organizations and NGOs, managing grants and monitoring projects with spreadsheets and manual processes feels familiar—but is it holding your organization back? As funding requirements become more complex and stakeholder expectations for transparency grow, relying on outdated methods can lead to inefficiencies, missed opportunities, and compliance risks.

As we prepare for the first few days of the new year, it’s important to remind ourselves what all we dealt with and accomplished in the previous one. Many people have said to learn from the past or we are doomed to repeat it. Organizations should look back on the issues they dealt with and projects they rocked to see if anything learned can be applied to the new year.

Associations have a long history as thriving communities of individuals and companies with common interests and goals. They serve as educators, advocates, idea forums, and compilers of industry research and best practices. Throughout their history, associations have, in many ways, remained unchanged in form and function. In fact, it’s not uncommon to see organizations celebrating the ideas of stability and consistency.

“The first rule of Fight Club is you don’t talk about Fight Club.” ~ Chuck Palahniuk. The idea of adding one more social media platform to the mix sounded about as appealing as pouring kerosene into my coffee, but I was curious anyway. It was the tweet from one very visible “influencer” singing Clubhouse’s praises that caught my attention. He’d said that being on Clubhouse (or “CH” as it’s sometimes referred to) had led directly to him meeting new people who gave him business.

Traditional budgeting and forecasting methods can no longer keep pace with today’s rapidly evolving business environment. Static budgets, rigid annual forecasts, and outdated financial models limit an organization’s ability to adapt to market shifts and economic uncertainty. To stay ahead, finance leaders must leverage a future-forward approach—one that leverages real-time data, predictive analytics, and continuous planning to drive smarter financial decisions.

Email marketing is something all companies, associations, and chambers are tasked with. It’s the number one driver of acquisition, engagement, and retention. But email marketing requires a little bit of trial and error — for everyone. What works well for one organization or industry may not work well for another. That’s just the nature of the game. That said, while every company and organization’s strategy will differ, there are a few ways we can ALL supercharge our email marketing in 2021.

So here we are, heading into a new year (and decade!) with a mixture of optimism and trepidation ( yes, I put optimism first ??). So many questions: What does 2021 hold for us? How will this past year affect – positively or negatively – our associations, our chapters, our volunteers, our staff, even our own careers, going into the future? Will we ever truly get back to “normal”?
