SUMMARY:Tips for Achieving Board and Committee Diversity
DESCRIPTION:Diversity creates strong nonprofit boards and committees. It provides a variety of perspectives\, experiences\, and networks; all of which make your organization stronger and more effective. Diversity also fosters a healthy representation of the community served and leads to diversity within your organization\, from staff to members to donors. We gravitate to communities where we feel welcome and understood. When its leadership reflects the greater community\, trust in the organization increases\, and it more easily attracts others. \nJoin us for this engaging conversation and learn from local leaders who have achieved success in diversifying their boards and committees. You will leave this session with actions you can take right away. \nPresenters. Tamara Craver\, Reality Changers; Juan Carlos Hernandez\, Jacobs Center;  Rebecca Karpinksi\, Planned Parenthood of the Pacific Southwest; Kathie Moehlig\, TransFamily Support Services; Jenna Novotny\, Mama’s Kitchen; and Liz Ramírez\, Chicano Federation of San Diego County. \n1.5 CFRE* credits.

SUMMARY:The Role of Ego in Cultivating Conscious Leadership
DESCRIPTION:“In order to lead efforts toward social change\, you must lead an effort to change and remake yourself—again and again.” – David Bronner \nAs a sought-after executive leadership coach\, Eric has observed that the #1 source of leadership breakdowns is ego myopia\, or the inability to distinguish and manage one’s ego.  Ego typically manifests itself in three ways:  The need to be right\, the need to be liked and the need to be in control. When we actively commit to working on ourselves\, we open ourselves to becoming the kind of leader our teams\, and ultimately the world need us to be. \nIn this workshop we will look at: \n\nHow to recognize ego-myopia in ourselves.\nThe impact of ego-myopia on teams\, workplaces\, and ultimately the causes we care about.\nThe three core components of conscious leadership:  Wisdom\, love and power\, and how to cultivate these qualities in ourselves and in our organizations.\n\nFacilitated by Eric Kaufmann\, Executive Leadership Coach. \nIn Partnership with Dr. Bronner’s. 1.5 CFRE* credits. \nRegister HERE.
