    Just one question this week and it’s massive! If we’re halfway through the fiscal year and we’re not going to come anywhere close to hitting our revenue targets, how should the board go about cutting expenses? Yikes! Stacey and Andy get to the bottom of it, but it took the whole episode. Happy New Year, thanks for listening and supporting us with your questions. We look forward to answering even more in 2026. P.S. Questions@NonprofitEverything.com is the email address.

  • AI Board Minutes

    AI Board Minutes
    Dec 10 2025

    Upcoming tax law changes mean that there could be a lot of unexpected gifts hitting before December 31st this year. How do we keep windfalls from ratcheting up board expectations for years afterwards? Stacey and Andy have some thoughts! Also this week, we hear from a volunteer who has been treated very badly, and have an actual disagreement about whether or not to use AI to compile notes from a board meeting! Thanks for joining us, and set your “point of action” to remind yourself to send a question to Questions@NonprofitEverything.com!
