John has been a consultant for 15+ years with the majority of his engagements focused on assisting organization leaders to evolve their perspective about what it means to lead the organization. He has developed a framework that provides leaders with a roadmap for leading the organization; a framework which dozens of client organizations have employed to great use in achieving higher levels of staff accountability, achievement of the mission via outcomes, and the identification and attainment of new funding sources towards sustainability. (EOE Sustainability Model)

The audience will walk away with:

• A new perspective, or context, as to what it means to be a Board member;
• Tools that can easily be employed within any organization; and
• The ability to answer questions such as: 
• “How and where should I plug in my most valuable talent?”; 
• “How do I know we are doing well and accomplishing our mission?”; 
• “What is the donor looking for in an investment-worthy organization, and what is my role as a Board member to help shape our organization to deliver it?”

Join John at the 2nd annual Inland Northwest Nonprofit Conference – Leadership Series held Thursday, February 16th, 2011, at the Spokane Masonic Center. For more information visit the AE website.
