Leading in Difficult Times...
It is undeniable that our country is in a financial crisis. The morning talk shows, the daily newspaper, the faces of passersby – all tell us loud and clear that our economy is in turmoil. It is tempting to crawl into bed, pull the covers over our heads, and pretend all is well.
As leaders, we are not immune to these feelings. But our organizations and our stakeholders are looking for action, not fear or paralysis. How we react to the economic crisis can go a long way toward calming fears and ensuring that our organizations remain strong. Our strength, now more than ever, will be rooted in an unshakeable commitment to our mission and in our ability to make and carry out plans that are at once realistic and creative.
Thinking strategically, according to the National Center for Non-Profit Boards, is the key to surviving crises and assuring the future of our organizations. REALM is convinced of this and so invites you to renew hope and confidence by imagining and exploring new options and new directions – and by translating them into a strategic plan.
