Jul 31, 2023 Episode 23
Haley Cooper | Certified Fund Raising Executive (CFRE), Certified Stress Management Coach, Certified EmC Trainer

In this episode of Lead with Heart, I have Yulia Zhernovaya as my guest. She is the Head of Operations and Strategy at Giveffect, the leading all-in-one nonprofit software. She aims to translate her passion for technology into the nonprofit sector and demonstrate how technology can make our work more human.
In this conversation, we are diving into the ways technology can help break down silos and get everyone on the same page, make more informed decisions, and significantly reduce the time spent on administrative tasks so you can do what you do best: human-to-human work. In other words, how technology can allow you to accomplish your mission.
In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • [06:55] Tracking data in a way that doesn’t take away from the mission
  • [10:48] The power of technology to break down silos and move the needle
  • [13:10] Overcoming the barriers to nonprofits adopting new technologies
  • [19:15] Tips to successfully implement new technologies in your organization
  • [23:10] Technology implementation across generations
  • [27:33] The importance of data protection and data privacy

NOTEWORTHY QUOTES
“Technology can make us more efficient, so we can focus on human-to-human work.”
“Technology can help overall institutional collaboration, but also institutional knowledge, as turnover is one of the biggest challenges in the nonprofit world. A lot of time when someone leaves their organization, they take all of the knowledge with them and you don't have that data.”
