● Managing Your Social Impact Career… Authentically
Thursday, November 18, 12 – 1PM
Nonprofit and social impact professionals desire realness in our lives.
We strive to align our values, beliefs and attitudes with the work we do, and crave authentic relationships with the individuals and communities we’re privileged to serve. Navigating those desires against the reality of work challenges and career choices is not always a straightforward process — but, the journey can be deeply rewarding.
If you’ve ever thought about being more authentic in what you do and how you do it, join us for a new workshop as part of our Social Impact Leader Series in partnership with YNPN Detroit. Led by Dr. David Brown Jr., executive coach, author, and authenticity thought leader, this workshop is designed to provide participants with a cutting-edge perspective on how to manage their social impact careers in a way that increases personal satisfaction and aligns to a sense of purpose.
The workshop will incorporate aspects of storytelling, guided introspection and strategic tips and tools, while introducing foundational authenticity concepts.
