Your skills and experience have prepared you to serve as an organizational leader, whether in your current position or one to which you aspire. But education and experience don't necessarily prepare us for the specific demands of leadership.
How well do you know your own leadership style? Are you democratic, paternalistic, a delegator, an autocrat, a collaborator, a coach or a steward?
This webinar series will explore the essence of nonprofit leadership while looking at the leadership styles of others, to develop an understanding of the traits that make for successful leaders who understand the strategy behind the words: “I don’t like to be managed. But if you lead me, I’ll follow you anywhere” (unknown).
This is a two-part webinar series:
- Tuesday, July 22 from 2:00 - 3:30 pm EDT
- Tuesday, July 29 from 2:00 - 3:30 pm EDT
Presented by APPL, in partnership with
The Nonprofit Center at La Salle Univeristy
Presenter: Laura O
tten, Ph.D.
Laura has the longest history with The Nonprofit Center, serving as a consultant and instructor for more than 30 years. In that time, she has distinguished herself on both the national and local levels, as an expert in nonprofit leadership, governance, strategic planning, evaluation, and other aspects of organizational management. Since 2001, she has led the Center, integrating a commitment to best practices in all aspects of nonprofit operations, and solidified our educational model to provide in-depth, high quality learning experiences that make The Nonprofit Center unique among any other organizations in the region. This same philosophy of integrated services and highly skilled and experienced experts also guides our consulting practice, in which she is also an active participant. Laura demonstrates a life-long commitment to the nonprofit sector having served on her first nonprofit board while still a teenager. Her expertise in nonprofit leadership, and midwife to a host of governance best practices, is underscored by her latest role in 2013 as inaugural director of La Salle University’s new M.S. in Nonprofit Leadership. While Laura jokes that someone who qualifies for AARP shouldn’t be blogging, her weekly posts on Nonprofit University Blog are read regularly around the world.
