SUMMARY:Ethical Leadership: Leading with Integrity
DESCRIPTION:Ethical Leadership: Leading with Integrity\nWednesday\, October 28\, 2026 – 10am to 11:30am Pacific Time – 12pm to 1:30pm Central Time | 90-minute virtual workshop \nRegister Today – https://fulcrumleader.com/event/ethics/ \nFree for Fulcrum Members \n$50 for Non-Members \nEthical leadership is not simply about knowing right from wrong. It is about making principled decisions when competing priorities\, organizational pressures\, and difficult circumstances make the right course of action less obvious. \nNonprofit leaders are entrusted with significant responsibilities. They steward charitable resources\, guide mission-driven organizations\, and build relationships grounded in trust. With these responsibilities comes an expectation of integrity that extends well beyond legal compliance. \nJoin the Fulcrum Nonprofit Leadership Institute for an engaging and practical exploration of ethical leadership\, the challenges nonprofit executives face\, and the importance of creating organizational cultures grounded in integrity\, accountability\, and trust. \nWhat participants will explore\n\n\n\n\nThe Foundations of Ethical Leadership: Understanding the relationship between integrity\, trust\, accountability\, and organizational stewardship. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nNavigating Ethical Dilemmas: Recognizing conflicts of interest\, competing loyalties\, and situations where the right decision may not be the easiest. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nEthical Decision-Making: Applying practical frameworks to make principled decisions under pressure. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nBuilding a Culture of Integrity: Establishing expectations\, modeling ethical behavior\, and encouraging transparency throughout the organization. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Courage to Lead Ethically: Making difficult decisions\, challenging questionable practices\, and protecting the organization’s mission and reputation. \n\n\n\n\nThrough facilitated discussion\, real-world examples\, and practical exercises\, participants will leave with strategies they can immediately apply to strengthen their leadership and organizations. \nCourse details\n\n\nWednesday\, October 28\, 2026 \n\n\n12:00 PM to 1:30 PM Pacific \n\n2:00 PM to 3:30 PM Central | 3:00 PM to 4:30 PM Eastern \n\nVirtual via Zoom \n\n\nFulcrum Members: Free | Non-Members: $50 \n\nJoin the Course on Zoom \n\nEthical leadership is not demonstrated when doing the right thing is easy. It is demonstrated when doing the right thing comes at a cost. \nThis session is designed for nonprofit executives\, emerging leaders\, board members\, and professionals who want to strengthen their ethical decision-making and lead with greater confidence and integrity. \nRegister Today – https://fulcrumleader.com/event/ethics/

SUMMARY:
DESCRIPTION:Fulcrum Member Exchange\nEthical Storytelling: Inspiring Action While Honoring Dignity\nWednesday\, November 11\, 2026 \n12:00 PM to 1:00 PM PT | 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM CT | 3:00 PM to 4:00 PM ET \nFeaturing Nikki Dutra (she/her/hers) \nSenior Director of Brand Strategy & Marketing \nOrangewood Foundation \nJoin the Exchange\nZoom Meeting Link: \nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/88903413541?pwd=0O0mJb772q1zd30srqMBLsTNHsFDDU.1 \nMeeting ID: 889 0341 3541 \n\n\n\nEvery nonprofit has powerful stories to tell. But are we telling them in ways that honor the people whose lives we share? \nStorytelling is one of the most effective tools nonprofits have to educate\, advocate\, inspire generosity\, and demonstrate impact. Yet the pressure to tell emotionally compelling stories can sometimes lead organizations to emphasize hardship over resilience\, organizational accomplishments over individual agency\, and fundraising outcomes over the dignity of the people they serve. \nWhat if we could tell stories that are both more ethical and more compelling? \nJoin Fulcrum Nonprofit Leadership for an engaging Member Exchange featuring Nikki Dutra\, Senior Director of Brand Strategy & Marketing at Orangewood Foundation\, who will share how her organization fundamentally reexamined its approach to storytelling and developed a more intentional\, empowering\, and ethical model. \nDrawing on Orangewood’s experience\, Nikki will explore the principles of ethical storytelling and\, more importantly\, the practical steps involved in putting those principles into action. \nTogether\, we’ll explore:\n\nWhy ethical storytelling matters: How traditional nonprofit storytelling practices can unintentionally diminish the dignity and agency of the people we serve.\nReframing the narrative: Moving from deficit-based storytelling to strengths-based\, person-first approaches that recognize individuals as the drivers of their own stories.\nConsent\, trust\, and empowerment: Giving individuals meaningful control over how\, when\, and where their experiences are shared.\nPutting ethics into practice: How Orangewood developed storytelling guidelines\, consent processes\, participant compensation practices\, and staff training.\nMaking the shift in your organization: Practical strategies for telling stories that inspire action without sensationalizing hardship or compromising individual dignity.\n\nThis will not be simply a presentation. Participants will have opportunities throughout the Exchange to reflect on their own storytelling practices\, discuss real-world challenges\, and practice reframing stories through an ethical lens. \nThe goal is not to make nonprofit storytelling less powerful. It is to make it more authentic\, more empowering\, and ultimately more effective. \nWhether you lead an organization\, oversee fundraising and communications\, or help shape the stories your nonprofit shares\, this conversation will challenge you to think differently about whose stories we tell\, how we tell them\, and who ultimately benefits. \nJoin us for this important conversation and leave with practical ideas you can put to work immediately. \n\n\n\nFulcrum Member Exchanges bring nonprofit leaders together to explore important leadership challenges\, share experiences\, and learn from one another through candid\, practical conversations. \nFulcrum Nonprofit Leadership \nPeople. Ideas. Resources. Impact. \nwww.fulcrumleader.com

SUMMARY:Fulcrum Member Huddle - One Team\, Two Roles: How Boards and Executive Leaders Win Together
DESCRIPTION:Fulcrum Member Huddle\nOne Team\, Two Roles: How Boards and Executive Leaders Win Together\nFeaturing Stuart Wachs\, Founder & CEO of The Impact Group \nTuesday\, November 24\n12:00 to 1:00 PM PT | 2:00 to 3:00 PM CT | 3:00 to 4:00 PM ET \nJoin us for our November Fulcrum Member Huddle\, a monthly opportunity for Fulcrum members to connect with one another\, exchange ideas\, and learn from leaders bringing valuable experience and perspective to our community. \nThis month\, we welcome Stuart Wachs\, Founder & CEO of The Impact Group\, for a practical conversation on one of the most important relationships in any nonprofit organization: the partnership between the Board of Directors and executive leadership. \nOne Team\, Two Roles: How Boards and Executive Leaders Win Together\nGreat organizations need strong boards and strong executive leaders\, but strength alone does not guarantee alignment. \nWhen boards and executive teams share a vision\, understand their respective responsibilities\, trust one another\, and remain focused on common priorities\, they can operate as one powerful leadership system. When those relationships become unclear or disconnected\, even strong organizations can lose momentum. \nStuart will lead a focused conversation exploring how nonprofit boards and executive leaders can clarify their distinct but complementary roles\, strengthen strategic alignment\, build trust\, and develop the habits that keep everyone moving toward the same goals. \nDuring our Huddle\, we’ll explore: \n\nWhat true alignment between the board and executive leadership looks like\nThe distinct but complementary roles of governance and management\nHow boards and executives can establish shared strategic priorities\nPractices that strengthen trust and partnership between the CEO\, executive team\, and board\nIdeas and experiences from fellow Fulcrum members facing similar leadership and governance opportunities\n\nHuddle Agenda \nFulcrum Community Updates\nMember Networking & Discussion\nOne Team\, Two Roles with Stuart Wachs\nQ&A\, Member Discussion & Takeaways \nFulcrum Member Huddles are about more than a presentation. They are a place for our community to build relationships\, learn from one another\, and leave with ideas that can make us better leaders. \nZoom Access\nJoin the Fulcrum Member Huddle here:\nhttps://us06web.zoom.us/j/88123705548?pwd=DPdzWA5LZcrtyqSspYpiwRppPcz7Dv.1 \nWe look forward to seeing you on November 24 and continuing to grow stronger together.
