The state of Illinois has over 36,000 registered nonprofit organizations that are eligible for tax exemption. These organizations are at various points in their development.  Some are startups, and  will never achieve their full potential, while others are institutions that have stood the test of time for over a hundred years.  What are the characteristics that separate sustainable organizations from the proverbial “fly-by-night” organizations that are here today, and gone tomorrow? 

Organizations that have long term sustainability tend to exercise excellent stewardship, yield results and have strong brands. Tune in as Valerie F. Leonard, an expert in community and organizational development, talks about ways organizations may strengthen their organizational capacity  to become powerful, productive and profitable.
