  1. The Central Texas Social Sector Eco-System and You August 26, 2019 Ann StarrDirector of Learning & Leadership, Mission Capital

  2. The Central Texas social sector

  3. 72% of nonprofits have annual revenues below $100,000 • Only 9% of nonprofits are above $1 million

  4. The evolving social sector • Social Impact > Tax Status • Entrepreneurs introducing new approaches to funding • Social impact investing • Earned Revenue streams • Workforce cares about causes…not organizations • Workplaces care more than ever about CSR • Lack of interest in nonprofit Executive Leader roles • Persistent lack of planned giving knowledge and programs

  5. Discussion Why don’t all Centex nonprofits offer planned giving to their donors?

  6. A systems approach

  7. What is a “System”? • A set of detailed methods, procedures and routines created to carry out a specific activity, perform a duty and solve a problem • An organized, purposed structure that consists of interrelated and interdependent elements.

  8. Why Understand Systems? • Our traditional definitions and structures of leadership aren’t as effective in achieving large-scale change. • Leaders’ mindsets and capacities must focus on collective problem-solving and systems change, rather than just individual gain or institution-building.

  9. Capabilities of system leaders • They see the larger system. • They foster deeper, more reflective dialogue. • They shift the collective focus from reactive problem solving to co-creating the future.

  10. System leaders… • See that the problems “out there” are also problems “in here.” • Recognize that we are part of the systems we seek to influence. • Create the space for change and enable collective intelligence and wisdom to emerge. • Know that system leadership is inherently developmental.
