Animal welfare is constantly changing and evolving, and organizations that embrace the opportunities presented by those changes stand a far greater chance of flourishing. But how do we hold the center of our organizational identity amidst that change? We do it by uncovering – and articulating – our foundational belief, our values, and our bottom lines.

We’ll talk about the challenges of doing this work, the key components of defining organizational identity, and how connecting to purpose has the power to increase your impact. You’ll leave knowing why it’s important to be clear about not just what you do, but how and why you do it.
