Lead Forward: A Nonprofit Executive Day of Strategy and Action

Nonprofit leadership can feel like a lot when you’re operating on your own. This day brings current and aspiring leaders together to sharpen strategy, upgrade communications, and build systems that actually work for your organization. You will learn, practice, connect, and leave with a 90-day roadmap you feel confident to run with. Expect practical tools, candid conversation, and a little fun with colleagues who get it. Lunch is included.

• Make real progress in one day. You will walk out with a plan for your strategic plan, a usable content plan, a starter AI prompt bank, and a 90-day leadership roadmap.
• Get unstuck fast. Mini breakouts, actionable trainings, and peer coaching keep ideas moving and decisions made.
• Learn from peers and practitioners. Facilitated sessions, a real-talk panel, and guided work time keep it grounded and honest.
• Build your circle. Meet leaders who face the same pressures you do and swap what is working right now.
• Leave energized. This is a come-alongside day that trades theory for action and encourages you the whole way through.

Executive directors, deputy and program directors, marketing and development leaders, operations and communications managers, board officers, and emerging leaders who want to level up quickly.

• Strategic clarity in a single sentence you can share with staff and board.
• A simple, durable content plan that repurposes one strong story across your channels.
• An AI prompt bank trained to your voice to save hours each week.
• A 90-day roadmap with priorities, quick wins, and next right steps.
