Effective Leadership: Engage and Empower

November 26, 2018 by admin

Share this:

One of the challenges of working with groups is how to engage individuals so that they will become an effective team and help make the mission of the organization a reality. This workshop will give a brief overview of what can undermine motivation and then mainly focus on tools and techniques that  can be used  for Board, Staff, Volunteers, or Committees to engage and empower. The tools and techniques will help accomplish the following:

  • Create a climate of inclusion and respect
  • Enable each person to have a voice
  • Prevent anyone from dominating
  • Foster listening
  • Facilitate problem solving and decision making
  • Finding out what individuals like or don’t like to do
  • Suggest ways to recognize and appreciate individuals or the team

PCW Annual NonProfit Conference 2021

This year, the Planning Committee realizes that the nonprofit community is isolated and disconnected due to the pandemic. We are planning a lot of opportunities for nonprofit staff, leaders and volunteers to come together virtually! In the video to the right, Marge Smith, founder and chair of PCW, explains how the conference is emphasizing the connections and support that only colleagues can provide.
