Unlocking Wholeness At Work

Tuesday, August 27, 2024 • Duration 10:03

This conversation is with Ana Polanco, international ancestral coach and cultural facilitator.

This month I’m doing a mini-series called Lessons from COVID that are still relevant today. Pulling together collections of conversations that I had with sector leaders called the Next Normal. We were deep in the days of COVID, and heading into a difficult election season, and everything felt fraught and difficult. And no one knew what our organizations and our work and our sector would look like on the other end of it all.

Now, here we are 4 summers later, and we’re starting to see which shifts stuck and which learnings from those difficult times actually reshaped how we operate together and as a sector. We saw that there are some fundamental questions and truths - about community, leadership, partnerships and sustainability - that endure.

I’m bringing you snippets of conversations that illuminate some of those questions and truths.

Lessons from COVID Part 1: Conversations With A Funder: Building Sustainable Organizations: Essential Questions For Leaders

Lessons from COVID Part 2: Shaking Hierarchies & Building Powerful Communities

Lessons from COVID Part 3: Harnessing The Power of Collaboration

Lessons From The Field: What’s Working in Small Shop Nonprofit Leadership & Growth in 2023- Leverage

Tuesday, January 10, 2023 • Duration 19:48

In this week’s episode, I’m continuing my new year series about setting intentions to guide your leadership and growth in the new year. Goals are important, but I argue that intentions are perhaps even more foundational and important. While your goals are a commitment to an outcome, your intentions are a commitment to a process - they are an orientation to your work: How you want to approach your leadership, actions, and decisions.

The second intention that you should set in 2023 is to leverage your time.

In this episode, you will learn:

What it means to leverage your time
The definition and importance of of “high leverage” activities
Two strategies for finding time for visioning, thought leadership, and relationship building.

Lessons From The Field: What’s Working in Small Shop Nonprofit Leadership & Growth in 2023 - Relationships

Tuesday, January 3, 2023 • Duration 18:26

In this week’s episode, I’m kicking off my new year series about setting intentions as a way to guide your leadership and growth in the new year. Goals are important, but I argue that intentions are often over looked and in some ways more foundational.

While your goals are a commitment to an outcome, your intentions are a commitment to a process - they are an orientation to your work: How you want to approach your leadership, actions and decisions.

One of the most important intentions you can set is to adopt a relationship orientation.

In this episode, you will learn:

What it means to set powerful intentions for your organization,
The centrality of relationships and network expansion in fueling your growth,
Two strategies for continually expanding your organizational relationships.

Nonprofit Strategic Planning Mini-Series | Setting Goals

Tuesday, November 29, 2022 • Duration 27:32

In this week’s episode, I’m wrapping up my short series on the architecture of a powerful annual strategic plan. I’m focusing on goal setting - a simple framework for setting goals that will serve as the powerful link between your vision for impact and what you actually do every month and week and day.

When you’re bogged down by the messiness of running your organization, managing your team, working with your board, and all of the other things that you need to get done as a nonprofit leader, you want to really know that the activities you’re spending money and time on - the tasks you’re doing, etc. - are directly linked to - and will lead to - the impact you care most about.

The way to do that is to make sure that your goals are grounded in your priorities. And we talked last time about making sure that the priorities are grounded in your vision. That’s the throughline.

In this episode, you will learn:

The key elements of a well architected annual strategic plan
The importance of setting meaningful goals
How to define a really effective goal
Questions to ask to identify 3 year and 1 year goals for your organization
