Learning to Lead: Within Yourself, Your Organization, Your Community

This innovative leadership program will emphasize a hands-on approach to leadership development within a collaborative framework. The program is as much about doing and discussing as about showing and telling.

Summit 2009 was a tremendous success with over 200 nonprofit leaders and executives from across the metropolitan region in attendance. In their respective keynote addresses, nationally renowned speakers Peter Brinckerhoff and Kim Klein offered conference participants provocative and insightful commentary on the challenges and opportunities of the "new" nonprofit world.

Conference attendees also participated in workshops on leadership, fundraising, board relations and financial management. To view materials and articles related to the workshops, please click the links below:
