I have been working in nonprofits for almost a decade. I can’t believe I am saying that out loud! Now that you all know I am getting old (not too old), I wanted to share a few insights on lessons learned. In the nonprofit sector, it can sometimes feel like you are giving too much of yourself. Program participants are draining you emotionally, someone is out-hustling you at work, money is tight at your organization, the community needs more than you have to offer and there is never enough time in the day to get everything done. I most certainly have felt all of these things and more. What I have learned from my time in nonprofits is that Everyone Leads.
