Opportunities in Challenging Times – A workshop for NGOs
12th &13th August, The Grand Solitaire Hotel, 1-240, 41&43 Parklane, Secunderabad -500003

After an overwhelming response to the first workshop at Mumbai in May 2009 which was a huge success, CSO Partners is happy to announce the second workshop in the series “Opportunities in Challenging Times” at Hyderabad on the 12th and 13th August 2009.
The Global economic crisis has impacted different sectors of the Indian economy in different ways. Civil Society Organizations are no exception. How have CSOs been affected? What are the unexplored opportunities in the current scenario? Do you have the necessary skills to explore and exploit these opportunities to emerge as winners? How do we face the realities of managing an NGO effectively and efficiently in tough times like these?
CSO Partners presents to you a range of domain experts who would help you to assess your strengths and weaknesses and equip yourself to excel. The workshops are intended to provide a common platform for NGOs to access specialist resources and network with peer organizations. The workshop would include one on one session with experts to help in diagnosis of symptoms presented, helping you design an effective strategy.
The workshop would help you:
Ø To understand how the current scenario and its complexity could affect you.
Ø Reflect on organizational capacity and capabilities to realize organizational change for promoting efficiency.
Ø To gain expert advice on harnessing the opportunities and emerge a winner in challenging times.

The workshop would provide:
Ø A better understanding of the economy and how it impacts NGOs
Ø Specific areas of opportunity which you could explore

Ø Access to domain experts for consulting and improving growth of your Organization
