Online Discussion Tomorrow: Grooming Nonprofit Leaders
June 15, 2009 | Read Time: 1 minute
Join us Tuesday, June 16, at noon Eastern time for a live, online discussion on how the nonprofit world should be preparing for major leadership changes, as the baby boomers who have founded and led so many of the nation’s charitable organizations reach retirement age.
We will explore ways in which today’s nonprofit leaders can inspire the next generation and respond to the concerns of younger workers.
Our guests include:
- Naomi Christine Leapheart, a financial-literacy instructor at Operation Hope, a Los Angeles organization that aids minorities.
- Eric Stevens, a senior consultant at the Collins Group, a Seattle consulting company that serves nonprofit groups. Mr. Stevens also served as executive director of St. David’s Child Development and Family Services, in Minnetonka, Minn.
- Robert Egger, founder of DC Central Kitchen, a food bank and culinary-training center for unemployed people, and director the V3 Campaign, a program aimed at giving the nonprofit world a more visible role in public policy.
The Chronicle’s online discussions are free and open to everyone. People who ask questions in advance have a better chance of getting answers.
