What is the NPSK IMPACT Leadership Program?
This is a seven-month leadership program that encourages peer mentoring and experiential learning. Leaders must balance strategy with purpose, operations with culture, and governance with leading and collaborating with people.
Through our IMPACT Leadership Program, NPSK provides leadership development skill building, personal strengths discovery, community support, and insights that nonprofit leaders need to drive higher impact, sustainability, and resiliency in their organizations.
IMPACT will provide the tools and resources to accomplish your goals—leaders will walk away with practical resources and tools to build a solid foundation to lead and manage their organization.
