As a nonprofit professional, you work day in and day out to transform society so that everyone, especially the most vulnerable among us, has an opportunity to thrive. You love what you do, but you have too many things on your plate, are continually putting out fires, and never have enough time and resources to get everything done. You want to take your leadership to the next level, but you’re not sure how. Maybe you’re wondering how others seem to be able to lean in and lead with calm, focus, and compassion, even during chaos and crisis.

Bring an open mind and heart to this experiential learning and skills-based course, which will include exercises that encourage you to assess what drives you and to confront daunting concepts like legacy and mortality.
