Sometimes, despite our best intentions, projects and programs fail. Whether it is a campaign, a fundraising event, or a computer system implementation, sometimes things don’t go as planned. What can be done to get it back on track? Is it even worth saving? If you do get it back on track, how can you be sure it won’t happen again? First step is to recognize the signs. Second is to step up and take action. Finally, learn from the experience. Walk away with tools and techniques to assess the status of your own projects and help them stay on track.

Be Prosperous Evening Retreat
What does prosperity mean to you? The dictionary defines it as a successful, flourishing, or thriving condition, especially in financial respects. Wholistic Prosperity flows through all areas of your well-being: body, heart, mind, and spirit. It’s about more than just money. However…what would it be like to have a new approach to your finances – an approach that is uniquely yours, based on your individual strengths? At this evening retreat coaches Carol deLaski and Jane Helm will blend two powerful tools to provide a framework for you to understand yourself better, celebrate what’s working, and learn strategies to address what could be better. Coach Carol will explore how your strengths serve you well with money…and how they may trip you up from time to time financially. Financial Coach Jane will introduce a Money Personality tool to creatively (and lightheartedly) look at typical money patterns that many of us fall into. Weaving these tools together they will help you understand how your individual strengths impact your relationship with money. You will leave this retreat with: Greater awareness of your strengths and your money personality Celebration of what you do well Small steps towards what you could do better A positive, and proactive approach to handling money your way *We recommend that attendees take the Strengths Finder assessment prior to this retreat and bring their top 5 strengths with them.
