Today marks one month since I started with Benefactor Group as a Senior Consultant in the interim services capacity. Here are four reflections I would love to share: 🗓 30 days goes incredibly fast. If you are an organization hiring for a leadership position, allow your new hire to jump in but also give them space to sit with the new. The Bene team has been incredibly thoughtful about this. 🙋♀️ It’s okay to ask for help. I say this from a place of deep compassion for organizational leaders. I have been there. Lean on people to help you. Having a third-party lens is sometimes the hardest to budget for but the best money you will spend. 📚 Knowledge is power. Easier said than done, professional development and keeping your brain sharp is imperative to our sector. “This is how we have always done it” does not work anymore. 🔆 Nonprofits are amazing, and so are the people that work for them. As we begin to dive deep into interim services and what that looks like for nonprofits, we need to take a moment to acknowledge that this is hard work. Sometimes an organization is not the right fit for the people that are hired and sometimes the person isn’t the right fit for the organization. Let’s normalize saying that is okay. If your organization, or someone you know might benefit from interim services­— a focus on expanding the capacity of nonprofit organizations through change and talent management, transition planning, and sustaining development infrastructure—I’d love to learn from your experiences and explore how Benefactor Group could help! 📢 Let's Chat! And if you want to know more about “Why I Serve?” (there might be some book recs at the end) read below!

Come see how you or your organization can help!

Have you ever heard of a giving circle? It's a group of individuals who come together to pool their resources💰and make collective decisions about how to donate their money to charitable causes. In a word - we get to #AMPLIFY our impact. And.... as an added bonus we get the chance to network and hang out with really awesome professional women, as a member of Denver Women in Business for Good. ➕ as another bonus we get to learn about the truly amazing work that local nonprofits are doing in our community. See 👀 below to click on 🔗 links for the 3 organizations that we learned about last night. 🩷💛💚So that was the meaningful way that I spent my evening last night.... at the intersection of giving back to my community while spending time with talented & successful women. DWB is a local chapter of the amazing national organization called Grapevine. I bet there's a location near you, if this sounds like it would be your thing. Curious if anyone in my network is part of Grapevine, or has had similar experience with giving circles? Share in the comments! ✅ Pro tip: If you typically dislike networking, this is a great way to do it while being part of a greater purpose. #networking #donate #community
