Funding Evidence Based Programs
The world according to ME
Does funding mean sustainability ?
Does sustainability mean funding?
Sustainability Named One of ‘Jargoniest Jargon’ Words of 2014
by Ad Age
• new normal• visionary• think outside the box• innovate• at the end of the day• 360 approach
Up and coming Jargon• open the kimono• all the way to bright• choiceful• touchpoints• authentic
She was a visionary who thought outside the box and used a 360 degree approach to innovate and assess the new normal.
With authentic leadership she made choiceful decisions about client touchpoints and took the campaign all the way to bright.
At the end of the day, it was never a problem to open the kimono and reveal the organization’s policies and methods.
I think that the word sustainability is hamstrung by its misuse rather than its overuse. What it needs is a lot more words - perhaps an entire language - to represent all of the concepts, ideas, categories, approaches and disciplines that this one overused word has been burdened with carrying. -Brian Solis
Sustainability
Used properly, describes practices through which something can grow without creating a fatal drain on resources.
Sustainability happens… when project/program is institutionalized either through recurring budget or policy.
Population health improvement is a long, winding process whose ultimate benefits may take decades to quantify.
A sustained problem needs a sustained approach.
Funding a project or planning a movement?
Do we need it?
Can we do it?
Can we sell it?
ASK
Now what?
So what?
Four major sources of grants • Foundations• Corporations• Individuals• Government
Eight areas that grant makers judge (today)
• The need for your services
• The clients you serve
• Qualifications and experience
• Program’s benefit to the community (outcome becomes a community asset)
• Soundness of investment in you
• Proof that you are a good funding partner
• Do you have evidence your community needs you
• What evaluation system are you using?
Social Media
Everything begins with a search
YouTube and Facebook are search engines
How are your Social Objects?
Social objects are:
Videos on YouTubeEvents in Upcoming or PlancastUpdates on FacebookReviews on Angie’s List or YelpThoughts shared in the comment section of a blog or the post itself
“Like us on Facebook or follow us on Twitter” – you’re now in the business of creating and distributing social objects.
Social Media Optimization (SMO)
The distribution of social objects and their ability to rise to the top of any related search query, where and when it is performed.
PRNot Press Release
Not Public Relations
People and Relationships
People…real human beingsRelationships…the idea we can do more together than
alone
A word about ‘Scale’
Today scale means BIG
Tomorrow scale means NETWORKED
- a soft spot for buzzwords- a disposition to use buzzwords just
heard- desire for the ‘latest thing’- tendency to believe the hype- lack of interest in research or first
hand experience
What does it mean?
Shiny objects may seem like they can do everything but in the grand scheme of things they can do nothing at all.
