Finding & Living in Your Zone of Genius

Jarrett Ransom–otherwise known as the Nonprofit Nerd–is presenting a workshop that acknowledges It is impossible to be all things to everyone. She says we cannot even be all things to ourselves most days. That’s why identifying your genius zone is important to doing a better job for your ​organization.

When Jarrett formed The Rayvan Group in 2009, it was their goal to be a YES company. “Yes, we can help you with your grant writing. Yes, we can help you plan your fundraising breakfast. Yes, we can manage your database. Yes, we can {fill in the blank with anything + everything}.” Over several years of helping nonprofits with a variety of their fundraising needs, they decided to take a step back and identify what unique talents they have on their team.

Jarrett continues to build her team by asking these two questions:

What do you love doing?
What are you great at doing?

This is the same for you and your rockstar team. Your volunteers, board members, and staff all have areas of expertise. Everyone has an area of specialty that they too love doing and are great at! Ask them the two questions above and help to shift tasks and responsibilities off your plates accordingly.

Join Jarrett as she walks you through an exercise that you can use for yourself or with your team to help identify your genius zones.

Learning Objectives:

  • Learn how to identify your zone of genius by answering just two questions
  • Identify what comes natural to you and where you might be able to delegate projects or align them with other teammates
