Research shows that young professionals and people of color are encountering barriers that prevent them from moving into a leadership role on a nonprofit organization’s board of directors.
In this episode of Catalyst, Shawn Edwards, a FOX DBA alumna, and Maureen Cannon, program director of Fox Board Fellows, discuss how a nonprofit organization can open pathways for building a leadership team that more closely reflects the community it serves. They also explore ways to overcome the “gap of intentional engagement” and become involved in an organization that aligns with a person’s goals.
