Thursday, May 9, 2024, 1-2pm, with Leslie Tamagi and Mike Grogan
Leaders in the nonprofit sector - at any level of an organization - are a breed unto their own. We are dedicated individuals who are passionate about serving our communities and strive in creative ways towards social change.
Effective nonprofit leadership is an ongoing journey and intentional practice. Whether you are working on systems level community change, running a nonprofit organization, or leading a team – impactful leadership requires an understanding of self and an openness to learning. The past few years have intensified the long-standing threats to our sector’s ability to deliver on mission with higher demand for services, limited resources, and major shifts to the way we do work. Now more than ever we need to support the passionate individuals at the helms of their cause so we can continue to sustainably serve our communities.
In this free 1-hour workshop for senior leaders, team leads, and aspiring leaders, Leslie Tamagi and Mike Grogan give an overview of leadership theory balanced with ways to put knowledge into practice.
Topics include:
- The Three Domains of Leadership: Developing leadership within your self, your team, and your community
- The need for intentional leadership development
- Evolving leadership to meet emerging needs in the nonprofit sector
- Common myths of leadership and the most desired traits of leaders
