** Leadership
------------------------------------------------------------
Greetings, readers!
We’re back from a two-week internal project to tighten up things that needed tightening and preparing at NPQ for the vicious vortex of punitive federal policies headed for our sector.
So for this week’s Leadership newsletter, we focus on leadership at the organizational level. First, a team of academics studying nonprofits offers up a buffet of strategies for organizational resilience ([link removed]) . Next, our own staff writer, Rebekah Barber, treats us to a conversation with Aida Mariam Davis ([link removed]) about her new book, Kindred Creation, decolonization, self-reclamation, and critiques of meritocracy, systemic inequality, and performative reforms. Then, we invite you to check out one of our free downloads ([link removed]) , The Call of Leadership Now by Neha Mahajan and Felicia Griffin, about the healing work essential for leaders.
Finally, join us on March 27 at 2:00 pm ET ([link removed]) for a timely webinar on how organizations can partner to respond to threats and meet community needs. In 2025, understanding your strategic options—from program collaborations to full mergers—is essential for nonprofit resilience.
As always, thanks so much for reading, and please feel free to email me tips, pitches, and feedback at

Yours truly,
Isaiah Thompson
Leadership Editor, NPQ
