Nonprofits of all sizes using all types of tech approach me: human services, health, associations, community foundations, even consultants and product companies!And they’re frustrated, stuck, angry, overwhelmed, even traumatized… by tech.Yes TECHNOLOGY.Sometimes it’s organizational inefficiencies, or burnout from implementing heavy list systems like CRM’s or ERPs, or relational dynamics of change, or tech projects that have eaten several years worth of budget.They have tried all sorts of things like:Hiring consultants and making RFPsImplementing CRM’s (sometimes multiple times)Sending staff to tech accelerators and bootcampsSpending hours and hours to get data to improve (in just one report)Getting a strategic coach and going to product trainings and webinarsGetting training for everyone (which makes sense, but can make things worse)Asking around to see what the best tech is (there is no magic bullet tech stack)No shame or shade from me. Nonprofits don’t want to burn staff out or waste time and money.And they don’t want to bring that stress home, but it’s inevitable.I’ve seen nonprofits spend 6 figures trying to fix bad systems only to find themselves in the same situation 18 months later, overwhelmed, burned out, and explaining things to the board.The truth is… it doesn’t have to be that way if nonprofits took a different approach.Because it’s not nonprofits with the best tech who are succeeding, it’s the ones who focus on humans instead of tech.There are 2 roles, 4 core skills, and 6 vital elements of digital health that all organizations must engage in order to see success with systems!When these roles, skills, and vitals are in place organizations can ✔ Massively increase organizational efficiency ✔ Create impact reports that show impact with data and insight ✔ Determine if you have the right systems in place ✔ Empower staff by learning skills that move your nonprofit forward ✔ Maximize fundraising data and informationBasically help your nonprofit get to a place where tech works for you instead of fighting with it all the time. It’s POSSIBLE!And the best part?Focusing on humans instead of tech is less expensive, more effective, and values aligned.My work has helped nonprofit organizations of all sizesResolve 3 years of CRM PAIN AND SUFFERING in a matter of monthsTransform accidental techies who were overwhelmed by tech into confident tech professionalsRewire executive teams in hours with my Digital Health Diagnostic.Let’s schedule a call!https://thehumanstack.com/meetings/timlockie/thehumanstack
