Be Honest... Does This Sound Familiar?
The board is dreaming big and approving brave budgets.
Fundraising is trying to find the money and the words to match.
Ops and programs are trying to deliver it all with the people and dollars they actually have.
Everyone’s pulling hard.
They’re just not pulling in the same direction.
And everyone is afraid to say it.
This hour is about the three conversations that would fix that—and almost never happen.
If you're in the middle of this tug of war this hour is for you.
What you'll learn...
You'll walk away with three tips from Heather Cayouette, Emily Bocking, and Cody Sharpe that will help you have conversations like:
- Are we really sustainable or are we just hoping the math works out?
- What can we realistically promise and what comes off the table?
- What does real fundraising partnership look like beyond "share the post"?
You’ll see a simple way to get all three groups in the same room, looking at the same numbers, making decisions that don’t break your people.
Who this is for:
- EDs/CEOs stuck between board expectations and staff capacity
- Fundraising leaders tired of being the “money person” everyone avoids until there’s a crisis
- Ops/program leads holding the bag on delivery and burnout
- Board chairs who know something’s off but aren’t sure how to start the conversation
