The majority of the senior leadership in nonprofits today is comprised of Baby Boomers (born 1946–62). Sure, there are Silent Generation (born 1925–1945) CEOs and GenX (born 1963–1980) executive directors, but the bulk of the senior leadership is currently Boomers. The people who are leading today are not the people who were leading ten years ago. As you think about the differences in leadership style across the generations, remember to also plan for getting to know that leadership culture.

However, the nonprofit sector is not immune from having leaders who bully, intimidate or dominate board meetings to get their way. This workshop explores toxic leaders, who are they and how organizations and boards can thrive in their mist (or get rid of them if they can’t).
