DEI, when woven into core strategy, drives results. If an organization treats DEI as a side project, it misses a huge strategic lever, a proven path to financial gains and market edge. Today’s challenges—attracting top talent, fostering innovation, boosting performance—require more than traditional thinking. It’s time to integrate, elevate, and reap the rewards. Explore how DEI Practice Bundles can elevate an organization in the article below. #DEI #strategy #business #diversity #equity #inclusion

Sharing this collaborative conversation with the Associated Luxury Hotels International (ALHI) Strategic Advisors Group, led by the talented Lalia Rach. Working with them is always inspired & enjoyable! One of the points I share includes the evolution of sales, "I'm happy to elaborate on that, but I'm actually going take a step back for a moment and thank both Sue and Neil for using two words that really are all about what I do: connection and humanity, right? What I do is the evolution of sales. It's the humanity of sales. It’s how we help people to connect at a deeper level. It's not manipulative. It's not competitive. It's not even consultative. It's collaborative. It’s beyond..." How are YOU incorporating humanity into your business adventure?? #leadership #sales #hospitality #humanity #elementsofadventure

Thanks to Debra Silimeo for highlighting this great event. Another key takeaway from our table discussion: managing and governing a nonprofit organization is just as challenging as managing and governing a for profit entity – if not more so. My esteemed colleagues called out some of the most significant constraints and challenges faced by nonprofit executives and boards as compared to their for-profit counterparts: -- Mission: 501(c)(3) nonprofits must be organized and operated exclusively for an exempt charitable purpose. Revenues cannot benefit private interests, and political and lobbying activities are limited. These tax-driven restrictions have implications for strategic planning, revenue generation and overall operations (including talent recruitment and retention). -- Dependency on donations and grants. Many nonprofits rely on donations, grants and fundraising efforts to fund operations. Managing the uncertainty of such funding sources and donor relationships adds a layer of complexity to financial planning and sustainability that for profit entities do not face. In addition, such funds may be restricted in their application. -- Stakeholder diversity. Unlike “regular” corporations where fiduciary duties are aimed at maximizing stockholder value, nonprofits serve diverse stakeholder groups, including beneficiaries (clients, customers, program participants), donors and grant providers, volunteers, board members and the community at large. So, for anyone who might underestimate the difficulty of running, managing or governing a nonprofit, think again! Shout out to the interesting discussion and the community contributions made by these folks.
