Does your nonprofit's leadership truly represent the diverse voice you serve? Why is it more important than ever to have equal representation at the board level? In episode # 174 of Your Path to Nonprofit Leadership, two talented nonprofit professionals have come together to collaborate on this important topic. Renee Rubin Ross and Christal Cherry share aspects from their DEIB training program and how nonprofits who commit to the process can strengthen the well-being of the entire organization.
"To accept diversity within your board, members must recognize and accept that others have a different lived experience and will not always share the same thought processes."
Renee and Christal discuss the knowledge gaps that exist between black and indigenous people of color and their white colleagues and what actions your board members can take once they recognize the differences that exist.
