Great nonprofits work like a well-oiled machine, consistently producing impactful outcomes and satisfied customers. What makes it possible is the work ethic and commitment of nonprofit leaders and passionate staff. With the highly anticipated generational shift in the sector, nonprofits are more than ever required to pay close attention to leadership development. Great nonprofits will need to sustain their success, while emerging ones will face wonderful new opportunities.
In his new book, The Nonprofit Leadership Transition and Development Guide, Tom Adams makes the case for taking a broader view of the sector’s evolution and seizing the opportunities that accompany the challenges of transition.
Join us for our Meet the Author program for an expert discussion on these topics:
- Proven paths to building and sustaining effective leaders and organizations
- Strategic sustainability planning and leadership development
- Diversifying nonprofit leadership
- Overcoming challenges that get in the way of maximum impact
- Talent management methods that help even the smallest organizations grow their own great leaders
