In this workshop, Program Officers will discuss how key drivers of an organization’s business model are used to develop long-term financial plans. Budgets and long-range plans can provide a benchmark against which progress toward strategic goals can be monitored and measured.
This session will include the following:
- Understanding and managing financial risk
- Multi-year financial planning to support sustainability and growth
- Financial modeling and forecasting practices
- What comes first: expansion of programmatic activities or building supporting infrastructure?
