It's a Small World
Frameworks for understanding and managing risk within organizations-often referred to as risk management "standards" exist in various forms throughout the world. Last week I had a wonderful opportunity to participate in the ongoing discussion about how voluntary standards and regulatory oversight of industry inspire, encourage and in some cases, coerce adherence to protocols that increase the safety of products and services.

Nonprofit Financial Management is No Game
! No one has a Monopoly on happiness but being part of a nonprofit organization provides many rewards. However, too often a nonprofit organization's lifespan is cut short by poor financial management (bankruptcy!) This series is a fun but in-depth exploration of the major components of nonprofit financial management. Participants will use the components of the game of Monopoly to learn how to play to win their organization's financial health. The organization with the most Monopoly money at the end of the series will win a prize! Bring this series to your community! Contact Mary Beth Harrington at mbharrington@tano.org for more details!
TANO Job Bank was the most cost effective, rapid response that I've seen for non-profits looking for staff.
