Thanks for sharing Debbie’s story, Beth. I am on the board of the Young Nonprofits Professionals Network here in the Twin Cities. And, although we’re not a big organization like Goodwill, I think we also have a great case study that you might like to hear about.

Thanks to taking a networked approach to our social media, we were able to increase our reach and double the amount of web traffic we were getting in just a year. Please send me an email if you’re interested in hearing more about the story.

All the best,

-Cary

This is exactly what is needed!! Non profits who need change must employ people who know how to change. This idea does not include just the medium of social media but as a whole, organizations must have an open forum. The “top down” governance approach is fading fast. “Inclusive governance” is here and moving quickly through non profits who want to stay viable. We must have he voice of the people who work in the field daily.

Thanks for this great post Beth. I’ve had the pleasure of hearing Debbie speak, and she is truly a visionary. I’ve also blogged on the subject of the importance of leadership embracing the shift we’ve taken to an outside/in rather than an inside/out marketing culture. Nonprofits who fail to recognize that the digital revolution has led to the “end of business as we know it” (as Brian Solis speaks about so beautifully) will be holding their organizations back. We can’t keep doing what we’ve always done before (just because it worked ‘then’) when our constituents are changing their behaviors ‘now’.

Thanks so much for the notes–she sounds amazing.
I very much believe in the concepts she presented, and one day soon, perhaps I too can work for an org with a “network mindset.”

My motto: “If you want to know how to do the work better, involve the people who do the work.”

Hi Mark, thanks for your comments. If you ever get a chance to hear Debbie speak, she is amazing.

@claire: I just did a presentation at the All State Foundation CEO Summit and was happy that there were tweets and my chicken scratch notes so I could create slide with her talking points. She is amazing.

Beth, thank you SO MUCH for doing a write-up on Debbie’s talk. At first, I was sorry that she didn’t do any slides because I rely on them to jog my memory later. But then I understood that she is such a compelling speaker that the slides would have been a distraction. However, you saved my bacon by reviewing all the important points she made. And this came during a week when I have to convince a nonprofit CEO about the value of social media.
