Leadership Development Series

Transform Your Leadership. Strengthen Your Team. Grow Your Network.

The Leadership Development Series offers practical, expert-led workshops designed specifically for nonprofit leaders and professional networks. Whether you're navigating team conflict, building a healthier organizational culture, managing talent retention, or leading through personal transitions, these 90-minute sessions provide actionable strategies you can implement immediately.

Why attend? You'll gain fresh perspectives on persistent challenges, connect with other leaders facing similar issues, and walk away with concrete tools to strengthen your team and your leadership presence.

Bring a colleague. Leadership is better when shared. Invite a friend or team member to join you—having a thought partner makes the learning stick and the implementation easier.

Stay in the loop. Join our mailing list to be the first to know when new workshop dates are announced. Spots are limited, and sessions fill quickly.

2025 - 2026 Webinar Options

 

Strategies for Attracting and Retaining Talent When You Can't Offer Excellent Pay
When competitive salaries aren't an option, strategic leadership makes the difference. This interactive workshop equips leaders with practical approaches to build loyalty, support employee growth, and create a workplace culture that attracts and retains talent—without breaking the budget.

 

Building Mutual Accountability for Team Culture in Organizations
Accountability isn't just top-down—it's a shared commitment. This workshop helps leaders create organizational cultures where everyone takes ownership of values and mission. Learn practical strategies to build transparency, align daily actions with stated values, and foster genuine mutual accountability without undermining leadership authority.

 

Help! My Team is Toxic and Stuck in a Never-Ending Cycle of Conflict
Through three real-world case studies, we'll workshop common organizational dysfunctions: faith-based organizations struggling to balance religious identity with legal employer obligations; rapidly growing organizations lacking infrastructure for people management; and mission-driven organizations where unclear vision creates leadership silos. Each case examines distressed relationships (Board/ED, ED/Staff, leadership teams), fiscal pressures, policy inconsistencies, and cultural breakdowns—and what it takes to break the cycle.

 

I'm Planning to Make Major Changes in My Life, and It's Going to Affect the People I Love. How Do I Plan for Their Resistance?
Personal change doesn't happen in a vacuum. This workshop applies change management principles to your personal relationships, helping you navigate major life transitions while honoring the people who matter most. Learn practical strategies to prepare loved ones for change, maintain connection during difficult conversations, and establish boundaries that support your transformation.

 

Leading Through Transition: Managing Your Inner Critic When Life Gets Messy
When life feels uncertain, your inner dialogue can either support or sabotage your progress. This workshop helps professionals navigate personal transitions while maintaining their professional presence. Learn to distinguish between helpful reflection and destructive self-criticism, make clearer decisions when everything feels important, and identify who's truly in your corner when you need support most.

The single biggest way to impact an organization is to
focus on leadership development.
