The Importance of Regular Check-Ins
Technology evolves rapidly, and your nonprofit’s needs can change just as quickly. Scheduling regular check-ins with your support partner helps ensure your tools, strategies, and goals remain aligned.
What to Cover During Technology Check-Ins
1. Review Recent Performance
- Are there recurring issues with your website, tools, or software?
- Have recent updates improved functionality and efficiency?
2. Assess Future Needs
- Are there new tools or technologies that could enhance your mission?
- Does your current infrastructure support your growth goals?
3. Evaluate Training and Support
- Are team members comfortable using the tools provided?
- Are there upcoming changes that require additional training?
How to Make Check-Ins Productive
- Set a recurring schedule (e.g., quarterly or semi-annually).
- Prepare a list of questions or concerns in advance.
- Collaborate on a roadmap to address long-term goals and immediate needs.
Regular check-ins ensure that your technology strategy remains proactive, not reactive, and supports your nonprofit’s mission effectively.
