Session: [Keynote] A view from up top
In difficult times there are still lots of free resources organisations can use to improve the way they work to increase their efficiency and effectiveness.
How are we able to make more of technology to address the resulting reductions in funding and difficult operating conditions to ensure we continue to deliver essential services? In this session Terry will share the challenges facing UK's nonprofit sector in an economic climate of relative scarcity, uncertainty and adversity. Using case studies of innovative approaches, Terry will look to move from stating the problems to describing possible solutions and the lessons for other organisations in seeking to learn from them and replicate success.
