Blackbaud's Nonprofit Conference is from October 20-22 in Washington, DC. Here's the list of sessions. I'll be doing a keynote about the Networked Nonprofit on Thursday, October 21st from 8-9:30 am along with Allison Fine (live-streamed here).

But with the use of the #bbcon and #netnon hashtag on Twitter and a video, I'll be there! So if you don't … [Read more...]

The Networked Nonprofit Board
The last chapter of the Networked Nonprofit is on networked governance.
