## Resource

Are you still operating your nonprofit like it's in startup mode… even after several years? Still figuring things out. Still reacting instead of planning. Still inconsistent with funding, systems, or structure. If that sounds familiar, you're not alone. Startup mode is temporary. But if you don't recognize when to shift, it can quietly become your normal.
