Grant Writing & Funding

Every nonprofit organization has a board of directors, but understanding their roles and responsibilities can often feel unclear. While there are widely recognized “10 Best Practices” for nonprofit boards, it raises important questions—who established these standards, and are they truly the most effective?

To understand the history behind these practices, Sarah Olivieri from PivotGround joins the Grant Writing & Funding Podcast and YouTube Channel to share a different perspective. Sarah challenges the idea that board best practices are always beneficial—and explains why they might not be the best fit for your nonprofit.

Sarah Olivieri is the founder of PivotGround, where she helps nonprofit leaders build stronger, more effective organizations. She specializes in nonprofit strategy, board development, and leadership, bringing a fresh perspective on how boards can better support mission-driven work.
