Connection 2014
September 9, 2014
Baltimore, MD

It’s not just an event, it’s an experience.

It’s not about who is at the front of the room… it’s about everyone who is in the room. It’s definitely not a meeting, not a conference, not a series of Power Points, and not traditional.

You can expect activities that inspire innovation and enhance learning. The relaxed atmosphere will encourage creative conversations about the topics that matter most in our field today. A sprinkling of purposefully interrupted time for quality networking will leave you refreshed, excited, and connected.

Topics that will be addressed include:

  • The Changing Landscape of Federal Funding: An Inside Look
  • Balancing Funding, Evaluation and Responsive Programming
  • How To Manage Difficult Team Members To Produce Results
  • CEO Transitions and the ‘Leftovers’
  • Effective Community-Driven Alternatives to Incarceration for Youth
  • The Role of Anecdotal Evidence In Your Program
  • Preparing Your Organization To Engage A Millennial Workforce Successfully
  • How To Effectively Use and Integrate Data in a Climate of Change
  • Trends in Foundation Giving and Collective Impact
  • Real Examples of Revolutionizing Nonprofit Strategy
  • How the Formation of a Collaborative Impacts Its Future Success
  • Leveraging Words: Using Storytelling to Unify Individuals Behind Your Mission
  • What Is the Sharing Economy?
  • The Danger of Disruption in Innovation
  • The Challenges of Data Analysis: Choosing and Using the Right Tools

MANY is dedicated to those who desire to be outstanding leaders and managers, pioneers and risk takers, and wish to make a positive difference in their communities. Our mission is to help our members be their best by nurturing innovative practices grounded in positive youth development. We know, in an environment of tight budgets and changing demands, successful organizations need to have a stable group of talented leaders and easy access to relevant resources. We connect great ideas and great people and then add the most valuable collection of services and professional resources.
