Leadership Insights From The Football Field: Leading In The Red Zone

The Practice of Nonprofit Leadership

Send us a text

Leading a nonprofit is a bit like being in the red zone on a football field? The Red Zone is where teams win or lose, depending on their ability to select and execute plays that move them forward across the goal line.
On today's episode, Tim and Nathan discuss nonprofit leadership activities that can make a difference and move the organization forward. Some activities discussed are those only an Executive Director can do, activities that build build personal capacity, activities that bring cohesion and momentum to a team, and activities that feed the leader's personal energy.
These red zone activities are inspired by the thinking of Todd Henry in his book, The Accidental Creative...a great resource for nonprofit leaders. You can find the book here.
