Chief Executive Roundtables
"The Roundtable is the single most vital part of my professional development...Beyond being my monthly sanity check, it has beyond paid for itself for my organization. Priceless!"
"It is not only ok, but important to take this time, once per month, to work on ourselves as Executive Directors, whether it is new information we learn from another sector, or peer support we do not get anywhere else (it IS lonely at the top!). I used to worry that I should be doing something else, and not prioritize our roundtable when it came around each month, but came to realize that I needed this to recharge to be able to do what we all do every day! "
2023-24 Roundtable participants
Chief executive roundtables provide unique forums in which leaders can come together with a consistent group of peers to build community and share experiences, challenges, and solutions.
Roundtables meet monthly and topics are selected by the group.
Roundtables strive to:
- Set a tone that is conducive to brainstorming, sharing ideas, solving problems, and networking.
- Address topics related to the unique challenges and issues nonprofit executives face every day.
- Deepen connections and build a community of support amongst participants.
If you want to build relationships with other nonprofit executives and are seeking inspiration and new strategies, roundtables are a worthwhile investment.
