Michael Richards writing (MCS Intern, MBA in non-profit management at Brandeis University's Heller School):

MCS is planning a couple of informative summer lunchtime
programs, and an exciting fall schedule of training and education events,
including the “Networked Non-profit Series”, a leadership development program
for IT managers and leaders, and a new series on “Information Technology for
Non-profits”.

Please be sure and bring your lunch for our first summer
brown bag networking and education lunches ("Drowning in Paperwork") on Wednesday, July 16 (there are 3 deli’s within half a block
of MCS, 6 Beacon St., Beacon Hill) from noon to 1:30pm, and again on Wed.
August 13 (exact title coming soon). Look here on the MCS web site
for discussion groups regarding these lunchtime programs.

MCS conducted several surveys of our customers this past year, both of the executive leadership groups and an internet survey of non-profit leadership, in an effort to find out how we were doing, and also to find out what services our customers would like to see offered. We have the results from 13 executives who have been in our Leadership Groups, and 82 respondents to our internet survey. Here is what we learned from you.
Responses from leaders were received from a wide range of organizations, in size, number of employees and volunteers, and in types of organizations.
