Let me just say: Chaka Khan.Really the conference was extraordinary. The opening session, stunning. The sessions, strong. The networking, friendly. The colleagues, creative and sharp. The closing panel discussion, important, and Paul Hawken's closing comments, inspirational. Much of the action was covered live by the folks at MediaGuns.
Somehow, the planners were able to create a conference appropriate for nearly 5000 VISTA leaders, AmeriCorps members, SeniorCorps directors, nonprofit execs, foundation program officers, "capacity-builders" like me, and corporate executives. Anyone in this field for more than 2 hours could imagine how tough that would be.
What ChangeMatters will be doing a lot more of, as a result of our participation:
- Looking for more ways to connect community-based arts organizations with community service action groups;
- Collaborating with colleagues to help service organizations raise more resources, improve governance, and plan for growth;
- Adding more tools to enable us to work more effectively as a growing "new economy consulting firm" (thanks to Laura Gassner Otting for this conceptual framework);
- Developing a board orientation program for arts organizations;
- Finding fresh venues and creating new ways to just do what we do.
