Heye-Tech (hi-tech): July 2015
http://steveheye.blogspot.com/2015_07_01_archive.html
All Things Nonprofit Tech but mostly IT Alignment and Digital Content. Tuesday, July 28, 2015. 16NTC and a new respect for the back office. My introduction to technology as a career was as a Finance Director at a local YMCA back in the 1990's. During those days it typically fell on the Finance or Accounting staff to manage technology (actually it is still true for some today). So I have been resisting the urge to promote the sessions I suggested, hoping the inherit value would garnish votes, but alas her...

Heye-Tech (hi-tech): December 2014
http://steveheye.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
All Things Nonprofit Tech but mostly IT Alignment and Digital Content. Wednesday, December 10, 2014. Is Adoption today's implementation? When I first started in technology, you needed technical aptitude and were forced to follow the parameters set by the tools. Technology projects were focused on the hardware needs, installation and setup. You needed to follow the implementation plan and then stick to the manuals. Luckily enough, the awesome, smart people over at Exponent Partners (who we worked with to ...

All Things Nonprofit Tech but mostly IT Alignment and Digital Content. Wednesday, March 19, 2014. What I learned at #14NTC (NTEN Nonprofit Tech Conference).

Heye-Tech (hi-tech): New Adventures for Steve Heye!
http://steveheye.blogspot.com/2015/05/new-adventures-for-steve-heye.html
All Things Nonprofit Tech but mostly IT Alignment and Digital Content. Monday, May 11, 2015. New Adventures for Steve Heye! My job was so much easier with the support of my boss, the CFO, Carla Denison-Bickett. Carla helped me refine my approach to fit the culture of Cara, which I needed help with because it was very different than I was used to. There are countless other staff I could thank, like Erwin Delfin for keeping the actual tech running, but this post would get out of control quickly. I also fou...

All Things Nonprofit Tech but mostly IT Alignment and Digital Content. Monday, August 11, 2014. Start with an Inventory - A Rule in Tech to Live by. When you go grocery shopping, first step? See what you have already. Photo credit Kiri on Flickr. When you go on a vacation, first step? Well, I guess a list, but then you use the list to do an inventory to make sure you bring everything. When you cook or bake, first step? Plus look at a tool like Spiceworks to build your inventory. My opinion is to get an o...

All Things Nonprofit Tech but mostly IT Alignment and Digital Content. Monday, August 24, 2015. We are so unique and complicated! I can't count the number of times I have heard nonprofits say:. Our needs are very unique, most systems won't work for us.". We have a complicated model and process, it is hard to explain.". We have limited tech experience, so we just do it all in Excel.". We are too busy, we need to hire more staff to keep up.". Custom Software = Custom Problems. Monday, August 3, 2015. The i...

Heye-Tech (hi-tech): IT Alignment Model
http://steveheye.blogspot.com/p/it-alignment-model.html
All Things Nonprofit Tech but mostly IT Alignment and Digital Content. Creation of this IT Alignment model with a group of YMCA staff was a turning point in my technology understanding. How do you align your technology with your mission? This has been the question I have been trying to answer ever since I got involved with technology. And I don't think I am alone in this quest. Here is the model that we created at the Y:. Read the original white paper. This book is a terrific resource for anyone wanting ...
