** Leadership
------------------------------------------------------------

In this week’s Leadership newsletter, we look at how to uphold democratic values in the United States. First, the Brookings Institution recently released a report warning that US democracy is in decline. Next, with our democratic foundations in rough shape, those in the civic field must build a common set of goals and measures for a healthier, more engaged public life. Then, the leaders of PowerSwitch Action share how to take on entrenched corporate power with strong, strategic organizations. Finally, on December 14th, NPQ offers a webinar on pay equity. Join us for this essential conversation on how organizations can rethink compensation and more fully embody their social justice values.
