#TuesdayTips ➡️ Episode 14 - "The Influence of Gratitude” 💜 This episode is in honor of our upcoming Teacher Appreciation Week (May 6 – 10). 😭 I got a bit emotional while recording this episode. I thought about re-recording the section where I started to cry a bit and talked with a shaky voice, but I left it in instead. My teachers and my parents (two amazing career-long educators) have given so much to me and their students that it got me a bit choked up when I spoke of them. 💗 🎤 Consider how you show gratitude to others. Specifically, which teachers and mentors will you thank during Teacher Appreciation Week (and beyond)? Discover key changes you can make to be more grateful and allow the influence of gratitude to shape you. 🎧 You can listen to the podcast on your favorite podcast platform or on the Making Key Changes website. 💗 Let's discover how we can grow together by making key changes!  #MakingKeyChanges

Does your non-profit have an ambassador circle? Having an ambassador circle is a great way to increase community engagement, develop future board members, and provide a space for previous board members to continue to be active without all of the commitments linked to being on a board Thank you to Strategic Disruption Consulting for sharing this tip in their latest blog. #nonprofit #leadershipdevelopment https://lnkd.in/eau5jVNd

Leadership in non-profit organizations is a delicate balancing act. Unlike for-profit organizations where financial incentives can drive performance, non-profits rely heavily on passion, purpose, and volunteer commitment. Many volunteers and staff members join non-profits because they believe in the mission, not the paycheck. Unfortunately, when leadership fails, it can quickly deflate team morale, diminish momentum, and ultimately hurt the organization's impact. The challenges that non-profit leaders face often stem from outdated management styles, such as micromanagement, secretive backroom conversations, or a rigid top-down approach. These methods can stifle creativity, discourage volunteers, and undermine the collective passion that fuels the organization's mission. Volunteers are often giving their time out of a deep sense of purpose, and poor leadership can make their contributions feel undervalued. It's not just about accomplishing tasks; it's about empowering people to feel like they are part of something meaningful. How Do We Switch Gears? Foster a Culture of Transparency and Open Communication: Transparency is key. Backroom conversations or avoiding difficult discussions can lead to mistrust and disengagement. Leaders must be courageous enough to have difficult conversations openly, cultivating an environment of trust. Brené Brown’s insights into vulnerability in leadership emphasize that transparency fosters stronger relationships and enhances team performance​. Embrace Bottom-Up Leadership: Like the military concept of Auftragstaktik, which encourages decentralized decision-making, non-profit leaders should empower their team members to take ownership of their work. This philosophy fosters initiative and allows volunteers to make decisions based on their unique perspective and expertise​. Leaders should focus on providing clear goals and direction while giving their teams the freedom to determine how best to achieve those goals. Build Leadership Competencies: Peter Drucker argues that leadership is about making others more capable and effective​. Leaders in non-profits must prioritize the development of their teams, continually offering training, mentorship, and opportunities for personal growth. Non-profits can blend older leadership styles with more modern approaches, particularly by leveraging the strengths of different generations.

Beautifully said, Jami Yazdani! Your first sentence got me thinking about what resources we use during strategic planning: * time - staff, board, stakeholders * money - hiring a consultant, buying resources for facilitations, assessments * space - physical meeting spaces, or online resources * focus - intention and attention of staff, board, stakeholders, volunteers * energy - staff, board, stakeholders Perhaps I missed some. What do you think? If a deeper process is needed, then so be it. It can be highly fruitful. But the reality is that it's not ALWAYS needed. There is a "law of diminishing returns" that we don't often talk about. We should start!
