Aspiring Leaders

Leadership Mentors and Trainers

Leadership Seminar Facilitators Seeking an Agenda and Lesson Plans

Leadership Rites of Passage: The Journey of the Aspiring Leader and the Methods of the Mentor shows leaders how to master leadership skillsets from the basic to the ever-more sophisticated and shows mentors &amp; trainers how to masterfully guide the leader to and through each successive challenge.

The long term work of personal leadership development is organized into 16 levels of leadership, each called a Rite of Passage. It displays how the aspiring leader masters each developmental task, how the mentor guides him, and it offers seminar discussion questions. These Rites of Passage are distinctly separated into four broad missions: Take the Lead, Create Followers, Become a Leader of Leaders, and Master the Psychology of Leadership.

This compelling fable follows an "everyman", Joe Miller, on his journey toward extraordinary leadership, from his earliest days through to his retirement speech. Early on, Joe finds a mentor, Sagen Cruz, who is masterfully probative and insightful as he draws Joe toward each leadership challenge. In 16 short but useful chapters we listen in on 16 mentoring sessions as readers passively gain the benefits of Sagen's careful guidance and witness Joe's work to influence people and build followership.

Very well organized and easy to read, it allows these leadership development tasks to emerge organically as the two men work together. Sagen tells Joe each Rite of Passage will continue calling to him until he masters it. Ignoring it will not make it go away.

Readers benefit from the way this leadership book uncovers the increasingly more difficult-to-detect core issues at play after Joe masters the basic essential elements of leadership. With each leadership challenge, Sagen points Joe to a masterwork in the literature which Sagen briefly summarizes, asks Joe to read, and expects Joe to incorporate as he learns how to lead. Readers can use this reference list to pursue their own subsequent leadership reading.

Each chapter is brief, impactful, and useful to master the art of leadership. At each chapter's end, three summaries offer us Joe's work, Sagen's executive coaching process, and thought-provoking case study discussion questions. The text and case study questions are complete lesson plans for a leadership seminar or training sequence. This text is likely to become one of your best leadership books and a treasured resource.

Purchasers of this book are encouraged to read also top 10 leadership books and leadership book best sellers by Brene Brown, John C. Maxwell, &amp; Ken Blanchard.

Do you want to become an exceptional nonprofit leader?


You have a vision, you have a mission, and you have a burning desire to do good in the world. But that's it...


Starting a nonprofit seemed like the right thing to do but it hasn't turned out to be that simple. Your skills are in driving social change, not in managing people, finding donors, and all the administrative headaches that come with running a business. But it's ok. All of these challenges are solvable and shouldn't hold you back from fulfilling your purpose. That's where "The 12 Secrets of Exceptional Nonprofit Leaders" comes in.


In this short book, I'm revealing the main factors that will help a nonprofit leader go from good to great. You'll learn things including:One thing that exceptional nonprofit leaders spend on average 6.5 hours doing each week
What an elevator pitch is and what it can do for you
How if all you're doing is managing, then you're doing something wrong




And much more...

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;What makes a museum, a museum in the 21&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;sup&gt;st&lt;/sup&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; century? This is a transformative moment in the history of museums. Traditionally, the museums have been defined by the functions of collecting, preserving, documenting, researching, exhibiting and in other ways, communicating and interpreting evidence of human culture and history for the benefit of everyone. But what is the future of museums in a fast-changing world of economic uncertainty, social disruption, health challenges and climate change? Can museums reflect the accountability and transparency under which they are expected to acquire and use their material, financial, social, and intellectual resources?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;What Is a Museum? Perspectives from National and International Museum Leaders&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; shares perspectives from dedicated professionals investigating how museums can meet their ethical, political, social, cultural, and environmental responsibilities in the years to come. In a series of essays, well-known leaders in the museum sector and related fields contribute to our understanding of the current and future challenges facing museums around the world. ICOM-US Co-Chair and Secretary of the Smithsonian, Lonnie G. Bunch III, summarizes the issues and provides guidance for the future of museums. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;Questions explored include: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;ul&gt;  &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;What lessons have we learned from the needs of the communities we claim to serve and how can we better adapt to shift our priorities in a faster and more efficient way? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;  &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;How can museums not only chronicle the past, but depict the present and become touchstones for the future of their communities?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt;  &lt;li&gt;&lt;span&gt;In a world aimed towards political correctness, how do we address collections resulting from power and colonization?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in why museums matter today, what their future holds, and how to change them&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;span&gt;A series of over 40 essays written by well-known leaders in the museum sector and related fields contribute to our understanding of the word “museum” in the United States and internationally. Members of the International Council of Museums provide overviews of topics &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

Research-backed strategies to unlock board engagement in nonprofit fundraising Fewer than half of nonprofits report full board participation in giving and fundraising, even as overall U.S. charitable giving reached a record of $617 billion in 2025 (or however your writers want to express that statistic). In Board Engagment&nbsp;and Fundraising: Transforming Expectations into Results, Bill Stanczykiewicz, EdD, director of The Fund Raising School at the Indiana University Lilly Family School of Philanthropy, delivers actionable strategies grounded in new research to increase board engagement. Drawing on primary research conducted through the world's only college dedicated exclusively to philanthropy, Board Engagment and Fundraising&nbsp;offers real-world examples and practical tools that nonprofits of all sizes can implement. Under Stanczykiewicz's leadership at The Fund Raising School, 80% of alumni report raising more money and 95% gain greater confidence in fundraising, reflecting the research-based approach that underpins this book. Readers will also find: <ul> <li>Research-based frameworks for transforming board members from passive participants into active fundraising partners for your organization</li> <li>Practical tools and actionable strategies designed for nonprofits of all sizes, from small community groups to large institutions</li> <li>Analysis of declining donor participation, with household giving dropping from two-thirds to roughly half since the century's turn</li> <li>Real-world examples illustrating how boards can address limited fundraising capacity in organizations relying on part-time staff and volunteers</li> <li>Insights drawn from The Fund Raising School's experience training more than 7,000 participants annually across the U.S. and around the world in-person and online</li> </ul> Written for fundraisers, nonprofit leaders, board members, and academic audiences studying philanthropy, Board Engagment and Fundraising&nbsp;provides a research-grounded roadmap for organizations seeking to strengthen board-level fundraising participation at a time when the number of donors continues to decline.

Don't Wait for Someone Else to Fix It

A tactical guide for nonprofit arts leaders, revealing the entrepreneurial traits that turn creative passion into sustainable success. 
Entrepreneurial Arts and Cultural Leadership focuses on real-world strategies to developing the entrepreneurial mindset necessary for leading and sustaining nonprofit arts organizations. Bonnie Fogel and Brett Ashley Crawford examine the leadership traits that drive innovation, adaptability and long-term viability in the ever-evolving arts sector. 
Through the case study of Imagination Stage, one of the top theatre companies for young people, they highlight how successful nonprofit theater leaders can navigate financial instability, advocate for equity and inclusion and implement sustainable business models in a landscape forever impacted by national and global events. With practical insights, tools and a resource-rich appendix, this book offers arts managers, educators and nonprofit leaders a roadmap for resilience and growth. Whether you are an advanced student, a researcher or an arts executive seeking inspiration, this book provides an essential framework for building the future of nonprofit theatre. 
Imagination Stage was founded as BAPA (Bethesda Academy of Performing Arts) in 1979 in response to the urgent need for arts education for young people. The company was renamed Imagination Stage in 2001 in anticipation of its move to its downtown Bethesda theatre arts centre in 2003. Imagination Stage has grown from a handful of children in a single classroom to a full-spectrum theatre arts organization, with theatre productions by professional actors and artists. Unlike most children's theatre companies, Imagination Stage commissions new works for children every year. These productions have been recognized with awards and productions by other companies around the world. 
Bonnie Fogel is the founder and longtime leader of Imagination Stage, one of the top theatres for young audiences in the United States. Brett Ashley Crawford is a teaching professor and faculty chair of the arts &amp; entertainment management programs at Carnegie Mellon University, USA.

Offers emerging and established arts and nonprofit leaders a deep understanding of establishing an entrepreneurial mindset, enabling them to adapt quickly to opportunities while meeting the demands of managing the complex operations of an arts and cultural enterprise.&nbsp;Both a classroom text and case study detailing practices. 13b&amp;w illus.

What does leadership really look like when the meetings are over, the donors have gone home, and the decisions still weigh heavily?
In B-Sides: The Hidden Tracks of Nonprofit Leadership, longtime nonprofit executive and educator Lee T. Montgomery takes readers behind the scenes of mission-driven work to explore the quieter, harder, and often unseen side of leadership. Borrowing the metaphor of a vinyl record's B-side, Montgomery focuses on the lessons that don't make the annual report but shape leaders for the long haul.
Drawing on decades of experience across manufacturing, education, and nonprofit organizations, this reflective leadership memoir blends real stories, historical examples, and practical tools for leaders who care deeply about people and purpose. You'll encounter moments of humility, missteps that became teachers, and steady leadership choices made far from the spotlight.
Each chapter is intentionally designed to be both thoughtful and usable, featuring:A short, true-to-life story from the field
One clear leadership principle
A practical tool you can apply immediately
Reflection questions for personal or team use


B-Sides addresses the realities nonprofit leaders face every day: building trust, empowering others, leading through change, navigating crisis, setting boundaries, and sustaining yourself without burning out. Along the way, Montgomery weaves insights from respected leadership thinkers alongside firsthand experiences that feel honest, familiar, and deeply human.
This book is written for executive directors, CEOs, program leaders, board members, educators, and anyone called to lead with integrity in complex, people-centered organizations. It is not a formula or a quick fix. It is a steady companion for leaders who want to do the work well and stay grounded while doing it.
If you've ever wondered whether leadership is supposed to feel this heavy, this personal, or this demanding, B-Sides offers reassurance, clarity, and perspective from someone who has walked the road and stayed for the whole record.
