237: People First: Rethinking Growth And Retention In Nonprofits With Michelle Flores Vryn and Evan Wildstein
On this episode on What The Fundraising, Mallory is joined by Michelle Flores Vryn and Evan Wildstein, the two leaders of the Social Impact Staff Retention Project. Together they explore how nonprofits can build a culture where the prioritization of both mission and people is rooted in its core. They discuss why taking care of your people is not just the right thing to do, but also a clever business decision. With increasing burnout and turnover, Mallory, Michelle and Evan dive into how organizations can foster growth beyond outdated promotions by prioritizing flexibility, purpose-driven work, and empowered leadership. We also discuss low-cost strategies for building a positive, sustainable work culture that improves retention and satisfaction.
