Reflection is a critical step in assessing individual and team performance at your nonprofit. A reflective process, whether it is a structured process for individuals or groups, can give us insights about what worked and what could be improved.

I reflected on all this while out walking in the Somerset countryside with my family on Sunday. I wanted to let everyone know that I’m doing my bit this year to raise awareness (and hopefully some money) for men’s health – specifically prostate and testicular cancer. You see on 4th October my Dad heard that he’d been successful in pushing prostate cancer into remission. It was my Mum’s birthday; and my eldest daughter’s, too.

The conference participants are a mix of people from nonprofits, schools, policy centers, researchers, universities, government, and young people.

My goal for conference presenting moving forward is to be on panels that I have designed or co-designed and that design involves the audience beyond a 5 minute q/a at the end. I realized that I enjoy presenting at sessions when the audience gets to share their knowledge with the room and each other. I really think that it is much more effective for learning than talking heads or expert brain dump.

On June 25, 2009, I announced on my blog that I was five days away from a cross-country move and knew it would disrupt my routine, including my blogging routine. I didn't want the stress of writing posts or the stress of having a blog go dark and disappoint loyal readers. The solution? I turned to my colleagues and solicited guest blog posts. I must admit that I haven't taken this long break from blogging since I started in 2004. I've even lived blogged my vacations.

Thanks to everyone who has been asking/texting/posting to make sure we’re okay following the devastating tornadoes last Wednesday. I’ll have to say, it was a very long evening. We knew for a couple of days that severe weather was coming. It started in earnest about 4 pm and we watched the local weather broadcast until nearly midnight, with one tornado warning after another. I’ll tell you, it was exhausting!

In our book, The Networked Nonprofit , we devote an entire chapter to something we called "Learning Loops" which is a combination of tracking and monitoring in real time as a project unfolds, but also incorporates a process of reflection at the end of the project to the next experiment. . It is really hard to carve out time to take a step back and reflect on what has gone well, what hasn’t, and what to do next. Tags: reflection scholar Flickr Photo by PCSO900.
