We’ve all been there. You’re standing in line with your small basket of groceries waiting behind the guy with the grocery cart piled high, parceling out coupons, scrutinizing every charge and writing out a check. If you’re me, your patience ran out the second time the cashier had to call for a price check on the item that he swore was on sale. So I start looking around -- is there a shorter line I can jump in? So I do, only to end up behind the gal who forgot something in mid-check out and has to run “quickly” to go get it. I smile at her as I silently scream, watching the moments of my day tick by.
I made the wrong choice, letting my impatience get the better of me thinking I could cheat time.
As a nonprofit leader your days are inundated with choices every moment and making the wrong one can have mildly irritating to potentially devastating effects. It can be a lonesome place to bare the weighty responsibility of the public trust but you aren’t really alone.
As a nonprofit leader your days are inundated with choices every moment and making the wrong one can have mildly irritating to potentially devastating effects. It can be a lonesome place to bare the weighty responsibility of the public trust but you aren’t really alone.
Nonprofit leaders do have a place to go to share their experiences, their choices, their weighty decisions; a place to grow as leaders and support the growth of their nonprofit comrades. The Center’s Nonprofit Leadership Certificate program and Leaders’ Circles provide safe harbor for shared wisdom, and personal-professional growth. Who says it has to be lonely at the top?
