Come spend a day with one of the most innovative and entertaining thinkers in the nonprofit sector!

The Ninth Annual Nonprofit Leadership Conference will provide nonprofit leaders with strategies and tools they can use to steer their organizations during these difficult times. Internationally renowned trainer, author and consultant to nonprofit organizations, Peter Brinckerhoff, will headline this one-day seminar.

Brinckerhoff will share his expertise on “Mission-Based Management in Difficult Times.” Learn how your organization can remain mission-based and effective while Brinckerhoff discusses his criteria for nonprofit success, identifies signs of trouble for a nonprofit, outlines a checklist for what to do in financial crisis, and provides leadership and management advice. His highly acclaimed and award winning Mission-Based Management publications include: Mission-Based Management, Financial Empowerment, Mission-Based Marketing, Faith-Based Management, and Social Entrepreneurship.

Luncheon discussions and a range of concurrent sessions will engage participants in exploration of serious challenges faced by nonprofits today. These sessions will be organized by leaders from our region’s nonprofit community.

This year’s conference will close with a reception for participants and others from Washington’s nonprofit community to celebrate the start of Volunteer Month and the future success of nonprofit endeavors.
