About Our Professional Development Program

Our Program is designed to empower emerging and established leaders within nonprofit organizations with the skills, tools, and strategies needed to create lasting impact. This program combines practical leadership development with a deep understanding of nonprofit-specific challenges and opportunities, helping participants navigate the complexities of mission-driven work.

What You Can Expect While in the Program:

Through a blend of workshops, coaching, and hands-on projects, we focus on building critical competencies in areas such as:

• Strategic planning
  • Driven by data and decades of industry knowledge
• Team management
  • Empowering an involved and invested team can make the difference between success and lack-luster results
• Fundraising
  • We call this the 'Glacier Affect', which means creating the foundation for successful fundraising happens beneath the surface
• Community engagement
  • Once your fundraising is in it's public phase, how to best reach the target demographic for a specific mission
• Board relations
  • A healthy board is critical to overall success. Leaders around the table need to be working towards a united result.
• Donor stewardship
  • This is a delicate relationship that takes time and energy to cultivate, resulting in larger gifts, recurring resources, and donor retention.

Participants will learn to lead with vision, foster inclusive organizational cultures, and strengthen their capacity to drive change in their communities.
