It's always so rewarding to support the Snow Foundation's initiatives, and it's been fantastic collaborating on their Lead the Way leadership program. For the cohort of 15 for-purpose organisations represented by their CEOs and senior leaders, the last few months have been spent learning, growing, and problem-solving together, before coming together one last time for the closing retreat. Throughout the retreat, adaptive leadership emerged as the unofficial theme, with many moments of reflection on accepting what is within our control, being solutions-driven, and supporting one another through challenges. It was a fantastic way to consolidate the cohort’s learnings and build lasting relationships. We’re excited to see what’s next for these empowered leaders and the ongoing support they will provide each other. Thank you to Plate it Forward's Kyiv Social and The National Centre of Indigenous Excellence. for hosting our final meetings. #LeadershipDevelopment #ForPurposeSector #EmpoweredLeaders

Congratulations Jo Taylor, Courtney Collins and the Pay What it Takes (PWIT) team on launching the "New Perspectives on Applying PWIT Principles in Australia" report. Weaving in valuable insights from sector leaders, this report is designed to grow the philanthropic sector’s understanding of PWIT's evolving principles and demonstrate how these principles can be applied to aid the Australian charitable sector. The report highlights the 'starvation cycle', a challenge facing charities in Australia and one that is heavily underscored in the documentary film Uncharitable Movie. UnCharitable is a tool to address this challenge, mobilising decision-makers across the philanthropy and not-for-profit sector to shift discourse from overheads as a tool for accountability, to overheads as an investment in impact. We encourage everyone to not only read the report, but also watch UnCharitable to better understand the importance of funding not-for-profits sustainably. Watch UnCharitable now via Gathr to support us in spreading the message further: https://lnkd.in/gAKdGeFh #SocialImpact #ForPurposeSector #ChangeMakers #ImpactInnovation #ImpactDriven #Granting #Philanthropy #DrivingChange #ImpactCommunity #charities #NFPs #charitablegiving
