95: Adapting Your Plan to Nonprofit Leadership (Bob Carter)  

SUMMARY

Are you open to new opportunities along the path to nonprofit leadership?  None of us know exactly where our journey will take us, but advice from Bob Carter, the guest on episode #95 of the Path Podcast, will certainly help.  Bob brings four decades of leadership experience in the charitable sector, and leads one of the top philanthropic consulting practices in the world at Carter Global.  He shares many of the lessons he’s learned along the way, including specific resources on fundraising and board development, as well as advice he remembers from many of the “accidental mentors” he encountered along the way. Bob is also a great champion for life-long learning, and it will be hard not to work on your professional development plan once you’ve finished listening to his ideas and suggestions!
