Add Review/Comment

Broward Cultural Division, ArtServe, Inc. and Nonprofit Finance Fund (NFF) invite the area’s cultural executives and non-profit managers, board members and development staff to a seminar on budget management in arts organizations. What’s in the Numbers? A Workshop for Mastering the Power of Financial Tools will be held on Friday, March 4, 2011, from 9:00 am – 4:30 pm at ArtServe Inc, 1350 East Sunrise Boulevard in Fort Lauderdale.

This workshop, designed and led by NFF, addresses issues for both new and experienced nonprofit managers facing increasingly challenging demands in the use of financial tools. Especially valuable for managers of organizations, this workshop encompasses a review of how to approach budgeting for successful annual financial management and external communications, how to use program economics as a method for making adjustments on the margin to improve overall performance, and concepts for thinking about and adjusting scenarios when operational changes occur. As the economy continues to change and remain uncertain for many in the nonprofit community, many organizations are revisiting current budgeting practices and exploring new options to better navigate this changing environment.



If you have ever been asked to manage to a balance sheet or if you wish to learn how to better articulate your organization’s goals and improve fiscal literacy, then this workshop is for YOU. The workshop promotes a discussion about linking artistic vision, key programmatic strategies, capitalization, and financial sustainablility, through key organizational tools and skills.
