Sharing an excerpt from Karthee’s session on Setting up technology processes and tracking mechanisms
In this video, Karthee addresses the following questions-
- How should non-tech-savvy founders go about using technology - where does one start? What has been your approach to setting up technology processes?
- How do you leverage low/no-code platforms for multiple aspects of your organisation?
- Specific questions:
- Want to be aware of tools and applications that make volunteer tracking smoother
- Want to create an online platform for volunteers to create a social profile, that helps the volunteers to express their ideas and connect with opportunities
- Creating systems that will definitely help us manage our program better, we currently use excel formula based tools
- How do you build/make use of platforms to automate work and create tracking mechanisms for volunteers?
- Specific questions:
- Tracking volunteer lifecycles and going beyond Google sheets, forms, and drive. Is there a one-stop shop for communication, knowledge management and tracking?
- As a matchmaking platform, we need to set up a technology tracking mechanism to scale and that is the biggest challenge for us
- Planning to introduce a WhatsApp bot and a login system for volunteers to keep a check on assigned cases
- How can I be more data-driven as an organisation and use analytics/insights generated by technology tools, as I scale?
- How do we use technology for blended models - where there is implementation happening in an online + in-person format?
