Nonprofit Workshop | What's Your "How"?
Advertisement
Most people are asked to explain their why. In the nonprofit world, that part is usually clear. What often gets overlooked is the how. How you communicate, how you approach your work, and how your instincts shape collaboration.
Nonprofit teams are made up of different working styles. Some people are detail-driven and focused on process. Others are big-picture thinkers who prioritize direction and outcomes. Both are essential, but when styles collide, miscommunication and frustration can follow.
This interactive workshop helps nonprofit professionals identify their natural “how” and recognize how it shows up in everyday work. Participants will explore when they feel most in flow, where breakdowns tend to happen, and how to anticipate friction before it becomes conflict. The focus is on practical strategies for communicating effectively across styles.
Participants will leave with:
-Clarity around their own communication style
-Insight into common sources of team friction
-Tools to prevent miscommunication before it escalates
-Practical approaches to collaborating across different work styles
Designed for nonprofit staff at all levels who want stronger communication and smoother collaboration in mission-driven work.
