Explore practical approaches to retain talent and foster a people-centered nonprofit culture.

Whether your organization is navigating financial constraints or simply re-evaluating how to better support your team, retention and morale are top of mind across the nonprofit sector. This interactive workshop offers values-driven strategies to foster a strong, people-centered culture, regardless of your budget size.

Together, we’ll explore practical, equity-centered approaches to support staff well-being, strengthen organizational culture, and retain talented team members in ways that align with your mission and values.

We’ll dig into questions like:

How can organizational structure and practices support positive culture?
