Independent Sector is the national membership organization that connects, strengthens, and advocates for nonprofits and philanthropies.
Join Dr. Akilah Watkins (Independent Sector), Tara Huffman (BoardSource), Dr. John Brothers (T. Rowe Price), and Edward Norton (Zeck) for a conversation about approaches that leading nonprofits, corporate social responsibility units, and technology innovators are using to help boards increase their effectiveness and impact.
Join us on Wednesday, June 26 for “Leading in a Polarizing Year,” a meaningful, members-only discussion in collaboration with Brevity & Wit. Featuring Minal Bopaiah, author of “Equity: How to Design Organizations Where Everyone Thrives” and founder of Brevity & Wit, this session will offer you tools for leading inclusively through challenge. It will also help equip you to examine your identity and the power that comes with it.
