Planning for an uncertain future is daunting. Nonprofits must prepare not just to react but to lead. Jennifer Alleva, CEO of Your Part-Time Controller, highlights the necessary steps for nonprofit leaders. Jennifer shares her expertise, addressing workforce challenges to leveraging strategic planning, and emphasizing a proactive approach rooted in mission-driven leadership.

Jennifer starts with clarity; “Focus on your purpose and mission… collectively we will get through these uncertain times together.” Whether it’s adapting to shifts in tax law, addressing workforce challenges, or leveraging technology without losing the human connection, shares advice for organizations to anchor themselves to their values and goals. She also underlines the value of leadership: “Develop power skills for everybody in your organization. Treat all staff members as leaders.” Her perspective reframes professional growth as a cornerstone for navigating challenges such as staffing shortages and technological evolution.

With host Julia Patrick, the duo discuss how nonprofits must prepare for upcoming trends, like donor-advised funds, changing tax laws, and the growing importance of data visualization. A tested method of communication, she adds, “Tell your story in the best way possible… combine data and visuals to communicate impact effectively.”. This can not only simplify complex financial info, but also strengthen connections with funders and other stakeholders.

You’ll gain a lot from this enlightening conversation--helping you prepare your nonprofit for 2025 and further.
