SUMMARY:It's Not You: The Impact of Nonprofit Systems on Leader Well-Being - June 24
DESCRIPTION:For Community Social Services\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe role of leaders in a non-profit organization is uniquely challenging\, and it is taking its toll – both on the well-being of those currently in these roles\, and on the capacity of the sector to invite new leaders to step in. There are systems at play\, and leaders are paying the price: \n\n\n\n\n\nThe exhaustion of never having enough admin support because of the ‘overhead myth’\,\nCorporate-colonial governance structures that lose sight of purpose\nThe constant expectations of funders\,\nThe tokenism of recruiting racialized and Indigenous leaders without addressing underlying racism and power dynamics in the organization\,\nThe stress of either staff unionization and/or employer/corporate -framed human resource systems and the “us vs. them” thinking this creates\, or\nThe chill of lobbying and advocacy laws that keep us from getting at core causes.\n\n\n\n\nThis webinar will explore those systems and offer practical tools for you to apply to support your well-being\, as well as highlight sector changes needed to reset the cycle of exploiting non-profits and their leaders to meet the world’s most challenging needs.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRegister
