Moving On Up In Your Nonprofit Career Webinar

Description

Have you ever wished there was a clear blueprint for your career success? Are you stuck in a job with no upward mobility?

You’ve waited long enough. Why settle for your current title and wage for the next two years when you can have a better title and more money in a new job?

It’s hard to find useful nonprofit career advice.

Many people just say “Stick with it! You’ll be rewarded!”

But according to the Bridgespan Group, most nonprofit staff are NOT being groomed for leadership, and only 33% of the time do people from inside the nonprofit even attempt to fill senior leadership level positions.
