A Community Asset Mapping Workshop: The Wisdom Your Community Holds
With Giovianna Burrell
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.
Thriving in a Changing Nonprofit Landscape
With Tsiporah Nephesh
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.
