SUMMARY:Digital Efficiency: Doing the Right Work\, Right
DESCRIPTION:Learn how to use digital resources to improve efficiency within your non-profit organisation\n\n\nDigital Efficiency: Doing the Right Work\, Right\n \nOnline workshop (90 minutes) \nDelivered by William Buist for CVS Brent Overview:  \nEvery organisation uses systems\, but not every system helps. This interactive session explores how to make technology serve your mission rather than smother it. Many small charities and early-stage businesses find themselves lost in files they can’t find\, processes they no longer understand\, and tools that promised to save time but somehow multiplied the workload. They get driven by their systems instead of supported by them.Digital efficiency is about clarity before complexity. It means designing work so that people and tools amplify each other instead of colliding. It’s about flow\, not friction. You’ll learn to spot where energy leaks away\, and how small\, deliberate improvements can free up time\, reduce errors\, and strengthen impact. \nWhat We’ll Explore \nWe’ll look at what makes digital work efficient — and what quietly destroys that efficiency. We’ll unpack the habits and principles that separate smooth\, reliable systems from those that frustrate and confuse.You’ll see how to move from cluttered processes to streamlined ones\, how to recognise when technology is helping or hindering\, and how to build digital order that supports creativity rather than stifling it. We’ll also share simple\, proven practices for keeping data tidy\, information findable\, and decisions well-informed — without needing to be a technical expert.By the end\, you’ll see efficiency not as speed\, but as ease: doing the right work\, right.Why AttendYou’ll leave with new ways of thinking about digital tools and how to make them work for you\, not against you. The session will help you identify where effort is wasted\, where clarity can be built\, and how to start creating systems that give you more control and less chaos.This is a session for anyone who’s ever thought\, “There must be an easier way to do this.” \nThis is an online training session. A link should be received upon registration for the event. If you are having any issues related to the online link or connecting to the session\, please email ibrahim.ansari@cvsbrent.org.uk

Together\, you are helping us to reduce car use and associated carbon emissions in the borough. Last year we worked closely with Lime to improve the service\, which resulted in a number of new measures.

SUMMARY:CEO Peer Network Support – stand-out Strategies
DESCRIPTION:An interactive session for non-profits to share their own experiences and solutions to making their organisation stand out.\n\n\nHave you ever wondered why other organisations seem to be doing better than yours? Getting more funding\, more volunteers\, more supporters and even more publicity? \nCould it be because they know how to build strong\, emotional connections with the people who matter? Could it be because they understand better\, how people want to feel when they work with them? \nThe majority of our decisions are made on emotions. When you understand how other people want to feel\, you’ll be able to speak their language. This will help you to build much stronger\, more persuasive relationships with them. This will help you to raise the funding you need\, as well as find the volunteers\, supporters and publicity that you want. \n10 years ago\, Chantal Cornelius from Appletree Marketing\, who will lead this session\, started looking at what makes organisations stand out more than others. She did lots of research and even wrote a book about it! In this online session\, she’ll show you a simple way to understand how people want to feel\, that will allow you to build stronger emotional relationships with key contacts. \nChantal regularly leads workshops and online training sessions for CVS Brent. Imagination how much she can help your organisation to stand out. This is an event that you don’t want to miss. \n \nThis is an online event. An online meeting link should be provided upon registering for the event. If you are having issues with the link or have not received it\, please email ibrahim.ansari@cvsbrent.org.uk
