Ideas
Join us for free virtual conversations with other nonprofit leaders.
Nonprofit leader conversations launched in March 2020 in partnership with UW-Madison Extension Brown County. More than 500 nonprofit staff, executives and board members have joined us so far, making the conversations a powerful forum for ideas and fresh perspective.
Upcoming Virtual Conversations
Leader conversations take place on the second and fourth Thursdays from 8:30-9:30 a.m. during the months of January through June and September through December. Each session offers an expert discussant who engages in a Q&A with attendees while offering expert insights. The sessions are free, but registration required. Upon registering, a Zoom meeting link will be sent.

Coaching Volunteers and Boards
As a leader within an organization, sometimes your role is to be a coach for your staff, volunteers, and board. To introduce the topic, Dawn VanderVoort, Melinda Pollen, and Jon Hill from UW-Madison Extension will describe how they train adults to tactfully provide advice and direction but leave the leadership and decision making to the youth in Extension’s 4-H program.
