The Power of Personal Responsibility: A Two-Day Seminar for Nonprofit Professionals
Discovering a Greater Sense of Agency in Your Life and Your Work
Nonprofit professionals are often challenged to take on problems that seem far greater than ourselves. It can feel difficult to meet our own needs as we tend to others' needs. How can we more effectively serve our organizations and fulfill our missions in the world while still making sure we meet our own needs and develop ourselves as leaders as fully as we can?
In this two-day, intensive leadership seminar, you will be supported to explore opportunities to take greater personal responsibility for your own development and self-care as a nonprofit professional, as well as your impact on your organization and the communities you serve.
You will learn a model of human development that can help support you to make effective choices around your self-care and your professional contributions.
By the end of the two days, you will leave with a personal plan for increasing your sense of agency and satisfaction in your work and in your life.
