Being a leader in the peer-to-peer world can feel like a whirlwind of demands. Stay relevant. Innovate. Stick to the fundamentals. Explore new revenue streams. Prioritize effectively. Cultivate meaningful relationships. It’s a lot to juggle and can leave even the most seasoned leader feeling a bit dizzy.
In the midst of this whirlwind, it’s crucial not to lose sight of our “why” – the reason we embarked on a career in the nonprofit sector in the first place and also why we joined our respective organizations.
