MACC Zooms In On: Shared Leadership Models

Wednesday, October 23rd, 1:00 pm - 2:30 pm

As our workplaces continue to evolve post-2020 our models for organizational leadership are shifting as well. Many organizations are exploring shared or hybrid leadership models as a way to meet employee needs for flexibility and growth and to open up additional pathways to build diverse leadership teams.

At the Bush Foundation, Molly and Mandy experienced shared leadership first-hand. Now with their consulting practice they'll help our MACC Network explore whether shared leadership is right for us! During this session Molly and Mandy will share various shared leadership models. They share real life stories from their work with leaders and organizations, and tips for making shared leadership models work. You'll also hear from your MACC Network colleagues and community who have experience with co-leadership, job-shares, and other fresh ways of thinking about leadership.

About dawn:dusk

Times are turbulent. Organizations, groups, philanthropies and investors are experiencing rapid changes and evolution as we all try to do more, do better and do right by more communities. We are a small consulting practice supporting mission-driven organizations, especially in these times of transition. Molly + Mandy We are professional soul mates who love working together! We have a long history of working in partnership, including creating and co-directing the Bush Foundation’s Community Innovation programs. Together, we have developed program strategies, formed and led teams, designed and led program operations and facilitated hundreds of conversations, meetings and convenings of various sizes and types. Through our years of partnership, one thing has become very clear: we each have a lot to offer as individual leaders, but our partnership is definitely greater than the sum of our individual parts.

FACILITATION. We design and hold space for a variety of conversations and meetings.

STRATEGY. We help groups figure out where they’re going.

MAKING BIG IDEAS HAPPEN. We help groups operationalize strategies and commitments to their values, in particular to equity.

FILLING GAPS. In times of transition you often need an extra hand. We can step in to provide short-term help in specific roles or on projects.
