Are you a nonprofit CEO or do you know one who could use a peer support group?
The Nonprofit Executive RoundTable (NET) is a confidential forum for nonprofit chief executives to share challenges and get constructive, real-time feedback from smart, connected leaders outside their organizations who understand the unique challenges of the job.
The professionally facilitated breakfast meetings will take place the second Tuesday of the month beginning September 12, 2017 from 8:30 -10:30 AM in Downtown Boston, easily accessible by public transportation.
Thanks to a grant from Eastern Bank, the fee can be discounted through need-based scholarships.
