Nonprofit executive directors often navigate local politics, shifting organizational cultures, and public scrutiny — sometimes simultaneously. This session offers a supportive space for peer conversation and shared learning around leading through change, conflict, and crisis.

Nonprofit leaders are often asked to address complex challenges with limited time, funding, and capacity. Yet some of the most powerful resources available to our organizations already exist within our communities. This workshop invites participants to identify and deepen their understanding of these community assets and explore how they can support meaningful partnerships, collaboration, and community-driven solutions.

This session is part of a transformative two-year program, designed for women of color leaders in northern New Mexico's nonprofit sector.

Nonprofits across northern New Mexico are navigating funding uncertainty, policy changes, staffing challenges, and growing community needs. This interactive workshop offers practical strategies, tools, and resources to help organizations adapt to change while staying grounded in their mission, values, and commitment to the communities they serve.

Many leaders avoid addressing issues until the molehill has grown into a mountain, and most employees say they want more feedback than they get. This session reframes feedback as a gift you get to give rather than something to be avoided, and offers practical language and structure for the conversations leaders tend to dread: addressing a performance concern, redirecting a behavior, and recognizing good work in a way that actually lands. We'll also cover how to receive feedback well, because the leaders who do it best are usually the ones modeling it. You'll leave with words you can use right away, and comfortably.
