Event Description:

Most nonprofits invest in programs, fundraising, and staff development. Far fewer invest in their leadership team's ability to work well together. That gap costs more than people think. Drawing on 25 years of evidence-based team coaching, this session explores what actually drives leadership team effectiveness in nonprofits, what teams consistently get wrong when trying to improve, and where nonprofit teams may be different from their business sector counterparts. Tosca Bruno-van Vijfeijken is a nonprofit team and leadership coach and change management consultant working with US and international nonprofits. She is Principal Consultant at Five Oaks Consulting and co-author of "Between Power and Irrelevance: The Future of Transnational NGOs.”
