Today is the last day to register! Join me tomorrow for a conversation about how Purpose-Driven Board Leadership could change the way your board leads. BoardSource Institute for Nonprofit Practice

Thank you for the invitation to be a part of this, Yolanda Coentro. It was wonderful to be in conversation with you. And - for those who joined - I hope we sparked a sense of possibility (and urgency) around board-level change!

Really important insights about the "tipping point" for board diversity (and its impact on equity) from @seandtb and our colleagues at Building Movement Project. bit.ly/36YEgkA

Yesterday, the Department of the Interior released part 1 of a report on the history & trauma of Indian Boarding Schools. The NP sector played a role in those schools and needs to be a part of the healing. Read more in this BoardSource blog from November. bit.ly/3wiePEJ

This looks like an incredible opportunity. Spread the word!

Huge thanks to Rhymes for Good for the tribute poem they created in partnership with the BoardSource team. It was incredible and so kind of you. (p.s. if you don't know Rhymes for Good, I recommend following for some nonprofit sector wisdom wrapped in mirth)

I'm thrilled to share that BoardSource has announced that Monika Kalra Varma will be our next President & CEO. Together with this amazing board and staff team, I know Monika will take BoardSource's work to new heights and I couldn't be happier for us all! bit.ly/3u6aqDc

Congratulations to all of this year's winners! An amazing group of leaders making a difference in the world.

Thanks to Center for Effective Philanthropy for re-releasing this blog from January. And thanks to the BoardSource team, including new president & CEO Monika Kalra Varma, for its continued leadership to spark and support board-level change.

Excited for an important Center for Effective Philanthropy conversation tomorrow abt philanthropic boards' crucial role in advancing equity.

As a #nonprofitCEO, I was fortunate to have the opportunity to work with a leadership coach, which made me a better and more resilient leader. It's a big part of what led me to become a #coach to #nonprofit and #philanthropic CEOs and EDs myself. linkedin.com/pulse/partner-…
