The Nonprofit Insider: May 23, 2019
We remember our country's heroes on Monday and every day.
Memorial Day had us thinking of VACATION!
In response to results garnered from our 2018 NWPA Nonprofit Salary Survey, we are continuing to release blog posts that touch on common trends throughout the data.

Nonprofits must manage benefits like vacation time in a way that accomplishes what it should (healthier employees = increased productivity) while not imposing significant liabilities on the organization. This is one area where nonprofits can, and should, take the lead.  Click here to read more about this on the NPP Blog - "Want More Out of Your Employees? Vacation is Key."
If you can't beat them, join them...
Wait, don't do that in this case. No one likes a hater!
If you have any form of social media account then you're probably aware of the term "keyboard warrior." Unfamiliar? Let us break it down...

Keyboard warrior: (informal, derogatory) A person who behaves aggressively and/or in an inflammatory manner in online text-based discussion media, but at the same time does not behave similarly in real life, potentially due to cowardice, introversion or shyness.

AKA - a thorn in the side for any organization on the internet!
