SUMMARY:Abundance and Radical-Move Leadership for Turbulent Times: A CNE Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Led by Laura Freebairn-Smith\, Partner at Organizational Performance Group (OPG) \nWorkshop description: The most successful leaders have many things in common – strategic thinking\, self-awareness\, and transparency\, to name a few qualities. However\, the idea of an abundance leadership mentality – or people who believe in seeing the world as resource sufficient and view power as shareable – is a thought model that more and more successful leaders are adopting today. \nAs we find ourselves in a time of unprecedented crises\, there is also an opportunity for us all to examine the underlying paradigms and standard operating procedures that are hurting us as a planet and species. It is a time that calls for radical-move leadership. Radical-move leaders ask\, “How can I get the positive sides of a crisis to stick?” They look for opportunities to model solutions to significant social and environmental challenges such as income and education inequality\, racial injustice\, and our carbon footprint. \nThe leaders in this workshop will come away with… \n\nEncouragement to take risks and make bold decisions on behalf of their organizations\nAn understanding of how to both boldly change their organization and incrementally make bold changes\nA self-awareness of their mental models that drive their leadership style\n\nWho should participate: Leaders of organizations or teams \nParticipation notes: This workshop is highly interactive. While there may be opportunities to have your video off and to mute during the session\, please join from a quiet space where you feel comfortable having your video and microphone on. \nRegistration: This session is being offered by FCCF’s Center for Nonprofit Excellence and is free to attend. If you would like to participate\, please complete the registration form by Tuesday\, May 31st. Participation is capped and will be filled on a first-come\, first-served basis.

SUMMARY:Celebrating Black Philanthropy: Connecticut’s Community Giving
DESCRIPTION:(L-R) Panelists Carl Hardrick\, Paula Irvin\, JoAnn Price\, Daniel Trust. Moderator Babz Rawls-Ivy \nPresented in partnership: \nThe Community Foundation for Greater New Haven\nFairfield County’s Community Foundation\nHartford Foundation for Public Giving\nThe Prosperity Foundation \nJoin us for a virtual conversation with philanthropists from across the state of Connecticut who have identified a need and are “giving gifts of time\, talent and treasure to make life better for others.” \nWe often think that philanthropy requires long-term planning\, large sums of up-front money\, and a particular socioeconomic status to be considered a philanthropist. What is needed is a heart to give. The word “philanthropy” means “love of humanity.” It is the desire to promote the welfare of others\, expressed mainly by the generous donation of money to good causes\, but nowhere in that definition does it mention the amount of money required. You merely have to have a heart to give\, and as the national Black Philanthropy Month theme states\, the “fierce urgency of NOW!” \nPanelists\nCarl Hardrick\, Wilson-Gray YMCA; Hartford Communities That Care Crisis Intervention Team\nPaula Irvin\, President\, New Haven Alumnae Chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority\, Inc.\nJoAnn Price\, Co-Founder and Managing Partner\, Fairview Capital Partners\, Inc.\nDaniel Trust\, Executive Chairman\, Daniel Trust Foundation \nModerator\nBabz Rawls-Ivy\, Editor\, The Inner-City News; Host/Co-Producer\, LoveBabz LoveTALK; Founder\, The Freed Woman Fund \nRegister Now\nObserved every August\, Black Philanthropy Month is a global celebration. A new organizing concept frames the BPM campaign each year. The theme for #BPM2022 is “Fierce Urgency of Now!” \nHosted by The Community Foundation for Greater New Haven.
