At this session you’ll learn how to develop an authentic culture of self-care that will deliver benefits to the organization and to the leader. We’ll take you from adopting a policy, to preparing and running the organization through the sabbatical, to returning to lead the organization. Tonya Brownlow will share her recent experience guiding Emma Norton Services through an Executive Director sabbatical – continuing its critical community services while allowing her time and space to reset her leadership approach and bring a rejuvenated commitment back to the organization and role. She’ll be joined by her Interim ED Amy Brendmoen from Mighty Consulting who will share her insights on managing and leading through a sabbatical transition. Engage with these two leaders who will convince you that in these stressed and stretched times, the question isn’t whether your organization can afford to provide a sabbatical, it’s more a question of can it afford not to.
