Part 1: General Logistics. Look for Part 2: Q&A

As a nonprofit manager or executive you know project management tips and tricks – it’s your job. One of the biggest projects you may ever have to manage is an office move. The people, the computers, and all the moving parts that have to land in the right place and be ready to go from your new location on day one.

As an IT manager, you keep the emails flowing, the data backing up, and the website live – it’s your job. One of the biggest challenges you may have to face is to manage an office move. Moment of panic when you “flip the switch” the first day? We’ve all been there.

Join Community IT Innovators office move experts William Maxwell and Rick Alloway for an informative and lively discussion of best practices to pursue, and pitfalls to avoid. We’ve learned a thing or two about moving in our 20+ years of working with nonprofits, and we want to help you get through it without tears.

Office moves can be disruptive, but they don’t have to be frustrating or involve unmitigated downtime. This webinar gives some good laughs at the worst that can happen, and some good insights into preventing disaster from happening to you.
