I think that it is important for individuals to take initiative to become leaders. AND, it’s equally important for non-profit organizations to create an environment that allows that to happen. This is the “sweet spot” organization I’ve written a little bit about in the past at http://tinyurl.com/yg8nvg6
I am helping to actively foster a “sweet spot” organization where I work. As we do so, employees will become more engaged, work will become more exciting, innovations will come with more frequency and oomph, and our organization will be able to accomplish infinitely more than what any one of us could accomplish alone. It’s the power of an organizational community and a collaborative environment. But, it doesn’t just “happen.” It needs wise guidance to strike a balance between formal and informal organizational processes. And when the balance is there, good things happen for organizations.
Cultivating tomorrow’s leadership in nonprofits needs to be a priority today, and the “sweet spot” is one way to promote that.
