Are you starting a new organization? About a quarter of new nonprofits don't survive. How can you make sure you're in the 75% who go on to grow and prosper? Alexandra Peters will lead a webinar at GrantStation.com on Tuesday, May 25th at 2pm EST which will take you through the basics of building a strong foundation of leadership, including establishing a board of committed advocates, developing long-term strategies for governance, and promoting a strengths-based organizational culture.

TOPICS: establishing a board | webinar | startups | governance"Leadership Dialogues" on the Leader to Leader site. Short videos (mostly about two minutes) with leaders talking about something important to them. A nice pick-me-up. I check it every so often for a little inspiration. This is from the site founded by Peter Drucker, who is considered by many to be the guru of not for profit.
TOPICS: leadership | videos | nonprofit resourcesA highly recognized organization focusing on strategy, executive leadership and funding capital, with many case studies and well documented articles. It's a 501(c)3, but it partners with a for profit.
TOPICS: leadership | strategy | fundingCalls itself "The Leading Business Publication for Nonprofit Management" This means it has a fair number of articles written in business-speak, but it's very useful as a digest and condensation of what's going on in the not for profit world. I subscribe to their weekly e-newsletter, which they send me for free. It's a condensation of articles of interest to nonprofits, but oddly with no links.
TOPICS: publications | newsletterLots of thoughtful articles on leadership and much that is relevant to not for profits. I subscribe and listen to this on www.audible.com.
