The Culture CARES® Accelerator
A 5-month private mentoring program for Nonprofit Founders, CEOs, & Executive Directors Ready to Lead with Confidence...Without Burning Out
You became a CEO to make a difference, not to be buried in overwhelm, turnover, and staff drama.
You shouldn’t be expected to move mountains alone. And you don’t need to sacrifice your health to serve your mission.
That’s where I come in.
The Culture CARES® Accelerator is a 1:1 strategic mentoring program to help you reset your vision, protect your energy, and build a high-performing, values-aligned team.
You’ll learn to empower your staff, navigate team dynamics and politics with clarity, and lead with calm, confident presence…without over-functioning.
Grounded in the CARES® framework, we’ll create a thriving organization rooted in:
Commitment, Appreciation, Respect, Engagement, and Psychological Safety.
