The Leadership Table
A table for nonprofit leaders who are done doing the hard parts alone.
One goal. Ninety days. A table of people who won't let you stay stuck.
You've already done the work with me. This is where you keep going.
The Leadership Table is only open to leaders who have been through a cohort or worked with me as a client. You know the framework. Now you get a steady rhythm, a clear goal and a table of peers at your stage who show up for each other every month.
Each table is matched with leaders at a similar stage, so the conversation is real from the first session. Tables stay together, and new members join only at the start of a quarter. It's a trusted circle where you're understood, seen, heard and supported.
Most fundraising wins don't come from one great training. They come from what you do in the ninety days after it. That's what this table is for.
From isolated to supported
"I may have this cohort for the rest of my life. It gives me structure, it gives me something to answer to, and it gives me focus."
"The combination of practical knowledge and skills I gained, and the connections and learning with my peers, was powerful."
"It's just nice having people behind you to celebrate and grow with."
"It is also great to have a team of other like-minded individuals in your group that you can lean on as well."
