The Greater Newport Chamber of Commerce today announced its newest program of 2025, The Nonprofit Leadership Circle, sponsored by Patridge Snow & Hahn, LLP.
According to the chamber, the program, designed to give extra support to address local leaders’ challenges, will gather attendees with guest speakers on topics that impact the non-profit sector.
Nonprofit leaders (Executives, Directors, and Managers) are invited to become members of the Circle by joining for the entire program to get the whole cohort experience or attend individual meetings.
The topics are based on feedback from nonprofit members of the Chamber. They are strategic, focused on leadership challenges, and designed to foster deep, peer-to-peer discussions.
The following six topics will be covered in the 2025 series:
• Navigating the Evolving Nonprofit Landscape: Adapting to Change
• Building a Resilient and High-Performing Nonprofit Culture
• Innovative Approaches to Fundraising in the Modern Age
• Data-Driven Decision Making for Impact, Sustainability and Partnerships
• Succession Planning and Developing Future Leaders
• Advocacy and Policy Engagement: Navigating the Political Landscape for Greater Impact
