Leadership

This week’s Leadership newsletter explores nonprofit innovations to support our communities. First, staff writer Rebekah Barber spotlights Great Jobs, KC, a nonprofit working to reduce the inequality in student debt through scholarships. Next, Common Future’s Sandhya Nakhasi asks what “fiduciary duty” would look like when the fiduciary is the community itself. Then, San Francisco State University professor Shawn A. Ginwright offers ideas for building Black futures through innovation in Black-led organizations. Finally, we invite readers to attend our upcoming premium webinar, “Recruiting & Managing the Board You Need.”

The Leadership desk is always looking for fresh ideas! Email pitches to Leadership Editor Isaiah Thompson at [email protected].

Recruiting & Managing the Board You Need

For many nonprofits, a relevant, thriving board feels like a goal that’s always just out of reach. But for organizations that do have the right board members focused on the right things, the return is powerful: appropriate oversight and stewardship, thought-partnership, ambassadorship, and for some, fundraising and giving. How do leaders get there? Join us on Thursday, July 11 at 2:00 pm ET for an honest and practical discussion of what it takes to get to a thriving board. Register for the webinar here…
