In this episode of The Small Nonprofit Podcast, Maria and Caitlin explore the key differences between being a boss versus being a leader and why leadership gaps are causing burnout and turnover in the nonprofit sector. They share insights into how nonprofit leaders can foster trust, create a supportive work environment, and empower their teams for long-term success. Whether you're managing staff for the first time or looking to refine your leadership approach, this episode is packed with actionable advice.

Key Topics Covered:

Boss vs. Leader: What’s the difference?
The impact of poor leadership in nonprofits
The traits of an effective nonprofit leader

Actionable tips:

➜ Foster psychological safety: Encourage open communication and feedback within your team.
➜ Seek mentorship & coaching: Great leaders never stop learning—invest in executive coaching or peer mentorship.
➜ Lead by example: If you want a positive, motivated team, you must embody those traits first.
➜ Encourage smart risk-taking: Nonprofits often fear failure too much—innovation requires taking calculated risks.
➜ Hold leaders accountable: If an ED or manager is ineffective, address the leadership issue instead of blaming staff.
