Description

Ever since Tasha and Evan learned about Veronica LaFemina’s concept of a one-page strategic plan, they were hooked. Years later, it’s been exciting following along as she advises nonprofits on addressing vacancies, siloes, and collective success. On this episode we talked about all of it.


Along the way we dive into —



  • Being a teenage peer mediator

  • Making Halloween accessible for more kids

  • The practical power of “I” instead of “we” statements

  • Vacancy rates and how they can tank your org’s mission

  • And one wish Veronica would make to improve the social sector


It’s practical, it’s honest, and (as always) there’s good nonsense along the way. If you know a nonprofiteer we should invite on the show, let us know at hello@goodnonsense.org!
