How to Adapt When Everything Around You is Changing: A Nonprofit Organization Survival Guide
I AmANGRY
What we are doing isn’t working anymore!
Everything must change.
Technology and the Internet, and their role in our lives, has changed how we communicate, get and share information, the media we consume, and the reasons we engage with each other -‐ online and of9line. The effects of these changes are being felt by all of us, every day, all the time.
Information moves FASTER. People are more closely CONNECTED. We all have DIFFERENT OPTIONS and BETTER CHOICES. Our EXPECTATIONS ARE HIGHER. The connections we make to the issues and events that shape our world are being TRANSFORMED -‐-‐ rapidly and constantly.
How organizations operate, organize, and communicate must be RE-IMAGINED. The passion and interest of individuals must be RE-FOCUSED and RE-DIRECTED. The ways that we measure success must be RE-ASSESSED. The ways we promote big ideas and create better solutions must be RE-ENVISIONED.
