LEADERSHIP LEARNING LAB: Financial Leadership III - Understanding Your Financial Pain Points (Peer Discussion)
Virtual Live Class | Available
The executive director position can often feel quite lonely, especially for new leaders. However, it doesn’t have to be. Nonprofit leaders bring with them a wealth of diverse knowledge and lived experiences. Sharing these experiences can be an excellent way to build community amongst leaders and exchange ideas.
This interactive 60-minute session will be limited to 15 participants, with the content driven by participants. Spectrum will facilitate conversation, providing content around previously submitted challenges leaders face and looking to peers to provide their own experiences. The goal is to blend expert and peer knowledge as well as build networks for leaders.
