Tomorrow's Nonprofit Sector: 2016 and Beyond

A Webinar by Stanford University 

NOTE: The webinar will be streamed live at the Hannah Grimes Center for Entrepreneurship from 2-3pm. A discussion of the webinar will follow, from 3pm to 3:45pm.

What do Uber, the Fight for $15, and robots have to do with the nonprofit sector? Each of these represents a defining force shaping the future of work in the United States, including work in the nonprofit sector. Join Lucy Bernholz, author of the annual Philanthropy and the Social Economy Blueprint Series, for a sneak peek at Blueprint 2016 and the future of work.

Targeted specifically toward managers and executive leaders, Bernholz will discuss the implications of the "gig economy," automation, and living wage battles for the social sector. The webinar will also be of interest to individuals concerned about their own career paths as well as at leaders involved with organizational change and planning processes.

This webinar will:

• Introduce the external forces shaping tomorrow’s nonprofit sector
• Identify the capacities that organizations need to thrive in the social economy
• Provide leaders with tools to consider for their own professional development and trajectories

The future of work and the shape of civil society are two key themes of the forthcoming Blueprint 2016. Bernholz will focus on the changing nature of work in the social economy and provide a preview of other themes for the year ahead.

Lucy Bernholz, Senior Scholar at Stanford’s Center on Philanthropy and Civil Society and cofounder of the Digital Civil Society Lab will lead the discussion and take questions.
