Defining Moment Clairity Click-it: Useful Nonprofit Links + Resources
Your defining moment
It’s easy to wait for it. The movies have taught us that when the music swells and the chips are down, that’s when leaders arrive and when heroes are made.
It turns out, that’s not how it works.
Our work is what happens in all the moments. Leadership doesn’t simply appear when the script announces it does: it is the hard work of showing up when we’re not expected to, of seeing what’s possible when few are willing to believe.
Your defining moment is whenever you decide it is, and you get a new chance to lead every day…
… Possibility is where you find it. We each have more to offer than the world expects. And growth is something we’re capable of, as soon as we’re committed to seeing what we can contribute.
…Our current worldwide tragedy is a slog, but it will have another side. And the organizations that thrive will be the ones that don’t rely on top-down management to go forward. It’s peer-to-peer leadership and innovation that produces resilience, and leadership that turns any moment into a moment where we can make things better.
— Seth Godin
Sometimes (often actually) Seth Godin just says it all. I am constantly in awe. So… sharing.
To help you turn your moments into moments that can make things better, here are resources I’ve collected for you. I hope you’ll find something that speaks to you. Something you can share with a colleague. Something you can put your strength into, and create one or more actions to help repair our world.
With gratitude,
Claire
