This episode has been a long time in the making. Since well before even dreaming of starting this podcast, in fact.
Since the very beginnings of supporting nonprofit leaders, the need for a new language to articulate the shifts in leadership and organizational dynamics has been a constant topic at THRIVE IMPACT.
Now, Tucker and Sarah dive into these foundational ideas by sharing the pulse they've captured from conversations with various CEOs and Executive Directors about this topic. They discuss the shifting landscape of leadership, and the need for words that resonate with the collective experience of change faced by today's leaders.
The highlight of the episode is Tucker sharing the first draft of the THRIVERS manifesto, a document crafted to embody the principles of inclusive and adaptive leadership. Sarah provides her candid feedback on the manifesto, offering insights into the power of language and the importance of co-creation in shaping a future where everyone's voice matters.
This manifesto is more than a set of ideals; it's a call to action for leaders to embrace a new normal, where learning leads to performance and authenticity guides progress. It's about leading from within and acknowledging that our "nos" empower our most significant "yeses."
Some key moments from this episode include Tucker and Sarah unpacking:
The critical feedback from leaders at the helm of change.
The process of translating collective feelings into a written manifesto.
The significance of co-creation in leadership and its potential pitfalls.
The journey from the first draft to a living document that evolves with input from its community of leaders.
Tune in for a deep dive into the THRIVERS manifesto and experience the co-creative process of shaping a leadership narrative that's not only relevant but essential for the future.
