Lessons From The Field: What’s Working in Small Shop Nonprofit Leadership & Growth in 2023 - Relationships

In this week’s episode, I’m kicking off my new year series about setting intentions as a way to guide your leadership and growth in the new year. Goals are important, but I argue that intentions are often over looked and in some ways more foundational. While your goals are a commitment to an outcome, your intentions are a commitment to a process - they are an orientation to your work: How you want to approach your leadership, actions and decisions. One of the most important intentions you can set is to adopt a relationship orientation. In this episode, you will learn: What it means to set powerful intentions for your organization, The centrality of relationships and network expansion in fueling your growth, Two strategies for continually expanding your organizational relationships.  Rate, Review, & Follow on Apple Podcasts“This podcast is heaven-sent.
