Five Tips for Leadership Success

Nonprofit marketing guide Kivi Leroux Miller posted some great tips on her blog that are sage advice for any nonprofit leader. Here's an abridged version:

  1. Define your niche. Don't try to be everything to everyone.
  2. Hire and mentor smart people. Never underestimate the value of your really good and really smart staff members, no matter how young or old they are.
  3. Be transparent. Hold integrity and truth in the highest esteem, and admit right away when you screw up.
  4. Be willing to experiment.
  5. Get out there and update as you go. You don't have to wait until you have all of the details to start conversations with your supporters.

Very simple points, but a lot of food for thought! especially on the point of experimenting. sometimes we let the fear of the unknown hold us back.
