Simone P. Joyaux, ACFRE Seminar

Is the nonprofit sector broken? Let the debate begin.

Does the nonprofit sector need to be fixed? The consequences for our communities are too important to put this question off another day. And the obvious answers up to now have usually been wrong.
Problems abound: Financial betrayal by the government sector. Arrogance and ignorance by the for-profit sector. Entitlement by the nonprofit sector. And enough scandal for everyone.
Sounds like a soap opera. But in fact it’s the world nonprofits now operate in. Tune in on November 12 and find out how the story could end…happily?
 Join Simone P. Joyaux, ACFRE – known internationally as one of the most provocative leaders in the sector – for a rabble-rousing session. Some comments may make you uncomfortable – and that’s the point!
