April 20-22 Workshop
The Leadership Challenge®
Virtual Workshop Experience 
The Leadership Challenge® is an intense and interactive three day virtual program that helps you tap into your personal leadership skills through a variety of activities. As you'll come to learn through The Leadership Challenge®, leadership isn't about titles. It's not about the position you hold. It's about the way you behave, the way you influence and the way you inspire. And each of you needs to serve as leaders as you work toward your shared vision. 
Greetings!

Nonprofit leadership matters, and now is NOT the time for our nonprofits to lose sight of the importance of building the capacity of all nonprofit leaders, in fact, it's the perfect time to invest in the staff that will help carry your nonprofit through these uncertain times. Due to the generosity of our funder, our facilitator Steve Coats and Wiley Publishing, we are offering special pricing for this program.  

Three things we know about The Leadership Challenge® that differentiates it:
 
  1. Attendees leave this session better able to lead - immediately.
  2. Research by Kouzes and Posner show that leaders have a direct influence on the engagement levels of talent. The best leaders create the best workplaces.
  3. People who more frequently use the leadership practices presented in the workshop produce higher results than those who use them less frequently.
  
Investing in new learning and growth opportunities for nonprofit leaders and investing in mentorship and support of nonprofit leaders is critical. This can come in the form of learning leadership best practices like the Five Practices of Exemplary Leadership®. Often at nonprofits there may not be an opportunity for “climbing the ladder” in new positions, but there is always an opportunity to develop ones self. Capacity building enables nonprofit organizations and their leaders to develop competencies and skills that can make them more effective and sustainable, while increasing the potential for nonprofits to enrich lives and solve society’s most intractable problems.

The Leadership Challenge® includes a 360 assessment, the Leadership Practices Inventory (LPI), which is a simple, 30 question inventory. The feedback it provides is very understandable and usable. It actually provides people with a solid roadmap for change. 

This is a great program for a few team members to participate in. Studies show that leadership development helps with the employee experience and retention.

We encourage you to respond promptly as the program is limited to 25 participants and a max of 3 people per organization. 
BONUS: As a participant, you will also receive a personal copy of "Ignite The Extraordinary," the newly released book from the program facilitator, Steve Coats, and co-author Tom Heuer, professor at Miami University. The book will help you take your more fully developed leadership capabilities from the session and immediately apply them, in helping your agency continue to fulfill its mission and grow.

"This program has not only connected me with nonprofit peers that are going through similar challenges, but it has provided me with a realistic roadmap to becoming a stronger leader. The Five practices are easy to understand and truly useful. The lessons learned resonated with me because they were real and practical, unlike other corporate training programs I’ve been through before. This program came at exactly the right time in my life and my career…funny how things work out like that. 
- Past Participant
"We started the Gift of Leadership program several years ago for Cincinnati area nonprofits, to provide a world class leadership development experience for those who typically do not have the budget for a program of this kind. Nonprofits face the same difficult leadership challenges as other organizations, and need more and more leaders to be able to address those challenges. This program will help all agencies strengthen their leadership capabilities, and consequently better serve the needs of the people in the community who rely on them every day."
