Embracing Change Is The Key to Nonprofit Growth

I was listening to one of my favorite podcasts by Ramit Sethi the other day and there was a statement made that struck me.

That statement?

Most people (even if they are failing) are more comfortable with choosing the same thing over and over again as opposed to trying something new.

My answer? I agreed with it.

This probably described me years ago too, but I’ve done LOTS of work to actually embrace change. I’d say I thrive in it now. Change and evolution is what makes me a better person and run a stronger business. It’s been the key to my growth.

And this is exactly what frustrates me so often. People push against this!

Doing things differently and embracing change is the KEY TO GROWTH.

To be honest, I look for this exact characteristic in leaders who hop on my calendar to learn what it’s like to work with me. Sure, I’ll share about my work, my consultancy, and the results my clients get working with me.

But, I’m listening too.

I need to know the people I work with are open to doing things differently. I need to know they are open to change. They’re open to STOPPING doing things that never fully fund their organization. STOP doing things that are leaving 7-figures of revenue on the table.

I need to know that they are done doing the same thing over and over again, that leads to them never having enough unrestricted money to do what’s in their Strategic Plans.

It’s your day to choose something different. Don’t waste the crises of the last few years. Now’s the time to make your move.

Sherry Quam Taylor works with growth-minded Nonprofit CEOs who are scaling their organizations but still need larger amounts of general operating support to truly grow. She breaks their teams free from the limitations of transactional fundraising and helps them reimagine their entire approach to revenue generation.

The high-performing leaders Sherry works with want to find and secure more unrestricted revenue from investment-level donors. They simply need more funding to do what’s in their Strategic Plan. To achieve this, she transforms their teams and boards into high-ROI revenue generators - revealing how they can align every hour they spend fundraising with new principles that double and triple donation sizes.

As a result of learning her methodology, Sherry’s clients regularly add 7-figures of gen-ops revenue to their bottom line by learning how to attract investment-level donors that WANT to fund their work. But the biggest transformation they experience is knowing the exact strategy, path, and team that will propel them to generate the 2-10X dollars their strategic plans require.

Sherry attributes the success of her business to her passion for modeling radical confidence to the future CEOs in her house - her two teenage daughters.
