Foundations often struggle with organization-wide grants management system adoption and many still rely on a frustrating mix of shadow spreadsheets and ancillary systems to manage work.
When the first grants management system (GMS) hit the market in 1985, it was built almost exclusively for a single end-user — the Grants Manager. Today’s grants management systems have evolved into enterprise-level tools that support the work of every staff member and centralize a foundation’s grantmaking into a single source of truth. But many foundations still struggle to get their program, operations, and leadership staff to leverage the system.
In this webinar, we explore examples of how modern GMS drive foundation-wide collaboration and are being leveraged by staff across grants, programs, operations, and leadership.
This webinar is ideal for foundation staff at all levels who are looking to foster collaboration and drive meaningful change within their organizations.
