Mini-Case StudiesBOS Techniques & Tools to Use

Punctuated Equilibrium

Why? BOS Cuz It Promotes Renewal!

Change/Renewal~ Change is constant – it’s how we keep up w/ the world’s challenges.~ Innovation is how we get ahead of those challenges.~ Innovation is not deemed successful w/out commercial success.

BOS Overcomes UsThe Three Brain Barriers

~ Failure to see the need for change.~ Failure to move. We’d rather do something familiar – even useless – than something new & unfamiliar.~ Failure to finish. We see the need but don’t know how to change.

Why Is BOS Thinking Needed?Strategic Planning

Chronicle of Philanthropy~January 2017 issue

~December 2016 issue

Changes to the Charitable Deduction*

~ Mr. Trump campaigned on capping write- offs for charitable donations

~ $100k for single persons*~ $200k for families*

~ R leaders in Congress want to limit the Charitable Tax Deduction – some Rs & Ds don’t*

* A New Landscape. (2016, December). The Chronicle of Philanthropy.

Changes to the Standard Deduction*

~ Currently: people can subtract a set amount of their taxable income without itemizing*

~ But, if they can save more by not using the standard deduction, fewer will itemize thus eliminating an incentive to give*

Tax Cuts for the Wealthy & Middle-Income*

~Long-Term: If the wealthy have more money to give they may give more*

~ 2017 bump

~ Short-Term: Will cut donations from the wealthy by 4.5% to 9%*

~Tax cuts have the biggest impact on those who make pledged gifts**

* A New Landscape. (2016, December). The Chronicle of Philanthropy.** A Giving Boom in 2017? (2017, January). The Chronicle of Philanthropy.

To Pay for Tax Cuts*

~ Eliminating tax credits for renters, child care, etc.*~ Reductions in all non-military spending*

Federal Spending*

~ Mr. Trump campaigned on a “Penny Plan” promising to cut Federal Spending $1.2T over 10 years*: ~ End the “budget détente”* ~ Lift caps on military spending* ~ Cut non-defense spending 1% year for 10 years*

Federal Spending*

~ Mr. Trump campaigned on: ~ Repealing Obamacare* ~ Turning Medicaid into a block grant program* ~ A $1T transportation/infrastructure program*

Federal Spending*

~ R House and R Senate Leaders want to: ~ Repeal Obamacare* ~ Privatize/Make Medicare a Voucher Program* ~ Cut “every” domestic federal spending program including food stamps, affordable housing, support for homelessness, public education, early childhood education, etc.*

Other Spending Cuts*

~ Spending Cuts on programs for: ~ Women, Racial Minorities, Immigrants, Refugees, International Aid, Human Rights, Rural Populations *

Nonprofit Political Activities*

~ Mr. Trump campaigned on repealing the Johnson Amendment: ~ JA prohibits 501(c)(3)s from endorsing or campaigning for political candidates ~ Proponents: JA impinges on free speech and should allow for political expression in the course of “normal activities”* ~ Opponents say it would dramatically alter how nonprofits would raise and spend money*

How Can BOS Thinking Help?Enabling us to create uncontested market space

for donors and customers.

“We’re a 501(c)(3). We don’t have the resources to innovate.”

“Innovation isn’t about the money you have. It's about the people you have, how you're led,

and how much you ‘get it’." -- Steve Jobs

“We’re a 501(c)(3). We don’t have the resources to innovate.”

"I think frugality drives innovation, just like other constraints do. One of the only ways to get out of a

tight box is to invent your way out." -- Jeff Bezos(founder of Amazon)
