Communication Solutions for Your Grant Writing Team<\/p>\n
The grant writing process has a lot of moving parts, and the operation will fall flat as soon as there is a communication breakdown.\u00a0 Everyone on your team needs to be on the same page, and that is not an easy feat.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Clearly delegate responsibilities<\/strong><\/p>\n From the get-go be clear about who is responsible for what so that everyone is aware of their roles and each other\u2019s roles.\u00a0 That way, everyone on your team knows who can answer which question they have.\u00a0 Be sure to communicate expectations and cultivate a working culture where teammates ask for help \u2013 and get effective help \u2013 when they need it.<\/p>\n Identify communication channels<\/strong><\/p>\n With so many different options for communication channels, it is more essential now than ever to identify the platform through which your team communicates and stick with it.\u00a0 Whether it is through phone, text, email, or app, everyone needs to be on the same page.\u00a0<\/p>\n Manage expectations<\/strong><\/p>\n On a similar note, working remotely and making your own hours is one of the best parts of working as a consultant.\u00a0 More working situations have moved remote as well.\u00a0 The big challenge is setting boundaries around your hours so your teammates know when you are and are not available.\u00a0 Setting a clear channel of communication helps everyone maintain a healthy work-life balance because it puts expectations around availability.\u00a0<\/p>\n Have weekly check-in meetings<\/strong><\/p>\n Weekly face-to-face check-in meetings with the team goes a long way to facilitating open and beneficial communication amongst the team.\u00a0 This can happen over Zoom or Skype, or in person if that is conducive to your working situation.\u00a0 This offers an added level of accountability to communication.<\/p>\n It\u2019s hard enough managing communication with grant seeking clients.\u00a0 Keeping your team on the same page and in open, beneficial communication is the key to successful grant writing.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n #BoydGrants #GrantOpportunities #FundingSolutions #EmpoweringCommunities #PhilanthropyMatters #GrantWriting #NonprofitSupport #GrantSuccess #GrantFunding #GrantPrograms #CommunityDevelopment #GrantMaking #GrantSeekers #GrantManagement #FundingTheFuture #MakingADifference #GrantConsulting #GrantApplications #GrantReview #GrantDeadline<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ fullwidth=”on” _builder_version=”4.20.2″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Communication Solutions for Your Grant Writing Team The grant writing process has a lot of moving parts, and the operation will fall flat as soon as there is a communication breakdown.\u00a0 Everyone on your team needs to be on the same page, and that is not an easy feat.\u00a0 Clearly delegate responsibilities From the get-go […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":20,"featured_media":6836,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[14,56,68,1],"tags":[82,80,69],"class_list":["post-6835","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-grant-basics","category-motivate-monday","category-opportunities","category-uncategorized","tag-grant-tips","tag-grant-writers","tag-grants-2"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.boydgrants.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6835","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.boydgrants.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.boydgrants.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.boydgrants.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/20"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.boydgrants.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6835"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.boydgrants.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6835\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":6838,"href":"https:\/\/www.boydgrants.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6835\/revisions\/6838"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.boydgrants.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/6836"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.boydgrants.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6835"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.boydgrants.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6835"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.boydgrants.com\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6835"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
