Advisory Council
Dear friends and colleagues,
2006 Year in Review
2006 was an exciting year for Net Impact. While in 2005 we focused on laying the foundation for our organization after becoming an independent 501c3 nonprofit, in 2006 we were able to take the organization and our programs to the next level. Our overall membership grew 17%, with member ratings of Net Impact programs and services growing as well. Our chapter network grew, netting 19 new chapters, including 9 international chapters. We strengthened our member value proposition, with new educational and career resources. We helped to expand our network impact through two campus change initiatives and laying the foundation for a workplace change project. We added two additional staff members, six new Board members, and launched an Advisory Council. And finally, we held another inspirational and sold-out conference with the Kellogg School of Management in Chicago, IL. We also ended the year on solid financial footing, coming in slightly under budget while exceeding revenue projections. We continued to diversify our funding by adding six new corporate sponsors to our network, doubling our dollars raised through individual philanthropy, and adding another earned revenue stream to the mix with job posting fees. In the following report, we have outlined both major accomplishments and where we will focus on improving for 2007. Our goal is to present an honest evaluation of work; while proud of our successes, we strive to continually grow and improve. We invite any comments or questions on this report and our plans for 2007 to

Net Impact members network at the 2006 Net Impact Conference
2006: Building on our Core Strengths
The Network
Net Impact’s mission is to make a positive impact on society by growing and strengthening a community of new leaders who use business to improve the world. Growth is an important part of our mission, and our most important growth metrics are dues-paying members and chapters. In 2006, we grew dues-paying membership by an overall 17%, from 3,180 to 3,731. After cleaning out member records with no activity before mid 2005, our overall membership numbers remain slightly over 10,000. There were two major areas we sought to improve in 2006, based on analysis of our member retention and member feedback. One was our focus on new members: we heard that some of our newer members were not aware of all the benefits and opportunities membership in Net Impact offers, and thus we implemented new member orientation calls and check-in emails. In addition, the team increased our internal focus on member service. Member service training is now a core part of staff orientation, and a priority focus of our team. Our chapter network also grew significantly in 2006, with a net gain of 19 chapters, including 9 international chapters. Our team focused not only on chapter growth, but also on strengthening resources for existing chapter leaders. This included new chapter leader orientations, improved and enhanced web resources, and a leadership training session at the annual conference. In 2006, we also identified key opportunity areas for growth and improvement. The first opportunity is the upgrade of graduating students to professional members. Last year, we converted 12% of graduating students to dues paying professionals; our goal for 2007 is 17%, which we are planning to do through a membership special appeal, targeted outreach, and analysis of our professional value proposition. We are also looking to build our chapter network in less represented regions, specifically in the US Southeast (home to the 2007 Conference in Nashville, TN) and internationally.
2006: What Worked Well
2007: Where We Can Build
• Chapter and member growth of 17% • Chapter leader rating of Net Impact responsiveness
• International value proposition • Member rating of Net Impact staff member service • Conversion of graduating students to professional members
• Increased chapter support

2006: Building on our Core Strengths
2006 nET iMPACT
cONFERENCE The 2006 Net Impact Conference, held in October at the Kellogg School of Management and in Chicago, IL, featured inspirational keynotes, a dynamic curriculum, and a Saturday night reception in Chicago’s historic Union Station. For the first time, Net Impact offered a professionals-only curriculum, with keynote speakers and panels designed for and by Net Impact professionals. The Conference theme, chosen by student leaders at the Kellogg School, was “Navigating Global Change,” reflecting the Conference’s intention to help attendees navigate their future impact on the world. Conference goers told us that the Conference inspired them to change the world: “this year’s Net Impact Conference at Kellogg confirmed my resolve to seek out employment in a company where I can use business for positive change in the world upon graduation. Meeting with like-minded people was an invigorating experience that added to my personal momentum going forward.” - 2nd year MBA student, York University In planning for the 2006 Conference, we faced a difficult problem – how to maintain capacity from 2005. The Kellogg School, selected as the 2006 host before our 2005 Conference sold out, had excellent but slightly smaller facilities than our 2005 host, and we found our capacity to be capped at 1,000. We decided to undertake the difficult task of adding a separate venue for professionals. While many professionals enjoyed the advanced curriculum, others told us that they missed the student energy, and many told us that the logistics of venues in both Evanston and Chicago were too difficult. Our choice of venues for the 2007 Conference in Nashville reflects that feedback, with a more centralized location and larger capacity.
2006: What Worked Well
2007: Where We Can Build
• Curriculum and keynotes • Professional focus
• Higher capacity after three years of sell-out • Smoother logistics • More interaction between professionals and students

Two of our leading membership drivers are our career services and educational offerings. In 2006, we significantly enhanced both. To improve our educational offerings, we launched a redesigned Learning Center that is updated weekly with news and resources on corporate social responsibility, social entrepreneurship, international development, environment, and more. We also launched a call series entitled “Issues in Depth,” which invited accomplished professionals to speak to groups of members about their company, career path, or industry. Over 850 members participated in these calls, and provided us with outstanding feedback on this unique benefit. Our team invested significant time in building our member career resources. We upgraded the functionality and design of our career website, increased the number of job and internship postings by 42% from 2005, and developed new resources such as a career handbook. Members continue to demand more and more recruiting opportunities through us, and the team is focusing on building the number of job postings and recruiting companies at the conference Career Expo.
2006: What Worked Well
2007: Where We Can Build

• Even more job postings

MEmbers as
change-makers Net Impact members are leaders, entrepreneurs, and change-makers. In 2007, we identified a number of key opportunities to provide members with the inspiration, structure, and community to create change in their campus or workplace. We launched two programs for graduate students: the Campus Greening Initiative and the Curriculum Change program. Over 30 schools participated in one or both programs, with students identifying specific, measurable goals to green their campuses or influence their curriculum. Having a structured, community of change-makers, tips, and best practices in place inspired many students to achieve progress on their campuses; a report on specific outcomes will be available summer 2007. Last year, we also set the groundwork for a program for professionals called “Impact at Work.” This program inspires and supports professionals who are not directly responsible for corporate citizenship in their job function, but who are interested in helping their company to be more socially or environmentally responsible. In 2006 we acquired seed funding for the program from the Levi Strauss Foundation, as well as sponsorship for a contest from Seventh Generation and Office Depot, and our team set the stage for a successful launch in the first quarter of 2007.

Meet Member Diana Rothschild
Second year MBA Stanford Graduate School of Business
Bio
Members who say they are currently changing the world through business
Diana first became interested in socially responsible business while working at WalMart in Arkansas as a Global Supplier Development Profiler. After analyzing the global business of Wal-Mart’s top suppliers and developing strategic and financial business plans with top management teams, she had an epiphany. “What would happen if companies in Arkansas got it? What if they understood they could make a socially responsible and environmental impact? And what if they could make money doing it?” She brought her thoughts to the CFO of Wal-Mart, Tom Schoewe, the next week. He loved the idea, and offered to put her in touch with the CEO regarding a project to understand Wal-Mart’s environmental impact. While she was able to make a difference in this role, helping Wal-Mart reap the business and environmental benefits of sourcing organic cotton, she felt with an MBA she could make an even bigger impact. In 2005, Diana enrolled at the Stanford Graduate School of Business to learn how to make environmental and socially-sustainable business models work as a holistic measure of corporate strategy.
Upon graduation in Spring of 2007, Diana plans to work as a Sustainability Business Consultant at Blu Skye Sustainability Consulting. Says Diana “I’d love to help market leaders gain competitive advantage by thinking about their business model through an environmental and social sustainability lens; I want to help them understand why their current business models won’t be rewarded in the same way in the future, and find innovative solutions to flip it upside down.”
How has net Impact helped you to magnify your impact?
How are you using business to better the world?
“I’d already met a great group of people at school, but the 2005 Net Impact Conference made me realize that the movement was a lot larger. Then, it showed me that there are many avenues to go about finding change. I had an amazing career coaching session at the 2006 Net Impact Conference and realized that consulting was what I wanted to do. Net Impact is a platform that allows people to realize what they’re passionate about. Net Impact shows people how to make changes in their everyday jobs, and shows companies that change is possible.”

A Net Impact member speaks up at the 2006 Net Impact Conference
2006: Building on our Core Strengths
MEmbers in
the community Net Impact continued one of our core programs, Service Corps, in 2006, inspiring almost 200 Net Impact members to work in teams providing pro bono consulting to local nonprofit organizations. In 14 cities throughout the U.S. , members helped local nonprofits to develop business plans, strengthen their marketing outreach, and improve program operations. One example from Philadelphia, PA, is a team of seven of our members who worked with the Friends Neighborhood Guild on a marketing and branding strategy project. The Guild was thrilled with the project: “it was wonderful to get a fresh perspective on our marketing and branding strategy.” The volunteers also benefited from the experience, with one commenting that “participating in the Service Corps project was a highlight in my MBA education. The project offered an opportunity to apply my experience and classroom learning to a real world situation and, at the same time, to feel good about helping a worthy nonprofit in my area.” We also started a program called Board Fellows that gives members an alternative to the time-intensive, group projects of Service Corps. Modeled after successful Board Fellowship projects at a number of leading business schools, Board Fellows places members on nonprofit boards as non-voting members who conduct a special project for the organization. In 2006, we piloted Board Fellows with 2 chapters, setting the stage for roll-out to up to 10 in 2007.
2006: What Worked Well
2007: Where We Can Build
• Increasing volunteer satisfaction with the program • Building our library of best practices and deliverables
• Changing the timeline to better meet nonprofit needs • Growing Board Fellows after pilot phase

Bianca Philippi Creative Insights
When I first volunteered with Service Corps, most of my professional clients were corporate and I was unsure of how to make the transition to the nonprofit sector. Service Corps allowed me to explore the nonprofit world and cross that bridge, without having to make a huge financial investment or time commitment. Service Corps has played an integral role in helping me achieve my objective of creating a completely values-based business. Because my experience as a Service Corps volunteer was so eye-opening and meaningful, I wanted to help provide a similar experience to others. Serving as a Service Corps City Manager in Los Angeles for the past two years has continued to be an opportunity for personal and professional growth. I enjoy doing outreach on behalf of Net Impact. It’s given me entry and exposure to a host of programs going on around the city, from universities to nonprofits as well as corporations. Being able to see the incredible work that so many nonprofit organizations, social entrepreneurs, and partners across sectors are doing throughout the city is exciting to share with Service Corps volunteers and learn about as a consulting professional. It’s a lot of fun to match up students and professional chapter members with organizations that would greatly benefit from their skills and experiences. Service Corps is also a networking opportunity as much as it is a professional development opportunity for Net Impact members. Being able to connect people and organizations through Net Impact has been very rewarding. A lot of people’s lives are impacted in positive ways through this program.

Last year, we realized that while our organization and network were active and thriving, we were not fully communicating the excitement and dynamism of Net Impact. Starting the year by hiring a marketing and communications team member, we made strives in improving the professionalism and look and feel of our materials, website, and newsletters. We also had a more robust press outreach strategy, resulting in an increase of press mentions from 6 in 2005 to 12 in 2006. We received in-kind advertising donations from media sponsors worth $70,000, an increase of 75% from 2006. In addition, Net Impact authored and released two publications designed to bring our member and stakeholder opinions to the forefront. The first, Business as UNusual: The 2006 Net Impact Student Guide to Graduate Business Programs, is a 120-page compilation of student feedback on how their graduate business programs are doing in addressing social and environmental topics through curriculum, career services, and extracurricular clubs. The second, New Leaders, New Perspectives: A Net Impact Survey of MBA Student Opinions on the Relationship between Business and Social/Environmental Issues, surveyed over 2,100 MBA students to measure current perspectives on the role of business in society, how business schools are doing at preparing future values-based leaders, and MBA’s interest in finding socially responsible careers. The findings were encouraging: see page 14 for examples. For a summary of results, see www.netimpact.org/publications. There were over 2,300 downloads of Business as UNusual directly from our website. We have heard from many faculty members that New Leaders, New Perspectives helped them to build the case for student interest in Net Impact themed curriculum. We are already building on the 2006 results with plans for a more in-depth analysis of MBA Perspectives, as well as a similar survey conducted with undergraduates in the first quarter of 2007.

2006: Building on our Core Strengths
Organization Staff We added two new staff positions in 2006, retained 100% of our full-time staff from 2005, and welcomed four new AmeriCorps*VISTA volunteers and four interns over the course of the year. The achievements above are due in large part to the fantastic work of the following staff members in 2006: Renee Baiorunos, Abbey Banks, Karin Cooke, William Critzman, Andrea Davids, Felice Espiritu, Kristen Haynes, Tiffany Liu, Sara Martinez, Liz Maw, Ryan McVay, Abby Monroe, Dara Kosberg, Billie Morrow, Sean O’Driscoll, Lars Olson, Jon Overman, Emily Schroeder, Lindsay Schedeler.
Governance Our Board of Directors grew in 2006 from 13 to 19. We are privileged to have leaders in the for-profit, nonprofit, academic, legal, and media fields as Board Members; a full list of Board members is found on page 1. In 2006, we also launched an Advisory Council, a body of advisors interested in providing expertise and connections to Net Impact. This list is found on page 2.
Walking the Talk We strive to ensure that our office environment and culture adheres to the values of our network. In 2006, for the first time Net Impact went carbon neutral! Our downtown San Francisco location is such that no staff drive to work, and we conserve and recycle where possible. We also invest in the training of our staff through internal trainings and outside workshops. In addition, our team annually completes a service project for a local nonprofit organization. At the end of 2006, we formed an Office Culture / Environment committee to get a wide range of team members involved in planning activities and events to create an enjoyable, productive, and inclusive culture for all.
Strategy 2006 marked the first of three years in our current strategic plan. The plan was created as a living document, and at the end of 2006, the Board and staff evaluated our progress to date and updated the strategy as appropriate. We are pleased to see that we are on track with our metrics and accomplishments, and believe we are poised to fulfill the plan objectives in the next two years.

Guiding Strategy: Theory of Change
I think your central Net Impact office is one of the best-run organizations I’ve ever had the privilege of working with. E ve r y t h i n g i s p ro fe ss i o n a l , organized, and responsive to member needs - and you all seem to go out of your way on a regular basis to anticipate more needs. So when your question of “what else can we do?” is met with a lot of silence, I think it may in part be an indication that you’re already doing an amazing job.
