75: How to Engage Your Community Through Nonprofit Leadership (Stacy Sumner Jesso) 

SUMMARY

Perhaps you are considering a move between nonprofit sectors, or even moving to an entirely different community to advance your career.  As a nonprofit leader, these are transitions you’ll likely manage along your journey, and you may also be helping navigate such a transition for someone who joins your team.  My guest in episode #75 of the Path Podcast, Stacy Sumner Jesso, has managed all of these transitions, and shares great lessons and advice from her nonprofit career in healthcare philanthropy, human services, education and arts & culture.  She’s also navigated the move from for-profit to nonprofit, and has learned how to bring these skills – and her community connections – to best benefit her charitable causes and the communities she’s served.
