Clairity Click-it: Business Still Not as Usual Nonprofit Links, Free Resources
It’s hard to get away from the ‘new abnormal’ in which we’re living. Which is why I’m writing a lot on Clairification about what to do during this extraordinary time. I also hosted a live Q & A on Zoom for Clairification School students last Friday. I’m doing it again today. Maybe next week too. Not enrolled yet? Now’s a great time to join in and connect with your peers!
Meanwhile, there are plenty of other folks out there, besides me, who have your back.
I’ve collected for you a slew of resources to help you mitigate the pain now and prepare for the day when things do get back to normal. Make sure you meet your urgent needs. But also use this opportunity to take a long view. Crisis has a way of forcing us to re-evaluate what’s important, and what’s not. Seize this opportunity to innovate, adapt and tweak what you’ve been doing so you’ll come out on the other side even stronger than you were before.
Also take some time to be grateful – and proud. You are making the world a better place. Your mission was important yesterday. It’s important today. It will be important tomorrow. You are on the front lines of enacting values other people truly care about. If they didn’t, they wouldn’t be your supporters. So please keep the faith in your vision. I promise you, it is one that is shared.
What you do matters. A lot.
It is my privilege and pleasure to help you do with as much joy, optimism and effectiveness as possible,
