Greeting, readers! This week’s Leadership newsletter takes a look at examples of what being a leader can look like in our sector. First, Ashley Marshall explores the idea of coleading as an act of positive subversion. Then, our own Steve Dubb interviews john a. powell about the concept of achieving “belonging” without giving in to the sometimes-reflexive desire to designate another group as “others.” Then, NPQ staff writer Rebekah Barber interviews Kevin McCracken, executive director of The Last Mile, a nonprofit that’s teaching coding and other job-centric skills to incarcerated people in an effort to improve their prospects and outcomes as they come out of prison. Finally, we once again invite you to attend our upcoming webinar on August 1, Hidden Gems: Actionable Lessons from The Untold Stories of Black Philanthropists.
