Schedule and Sessions

While the "Glass Ceiling" remains a hurdle, many women in the nonprofit sector are facing an even more treacherous phenomenon: the Glass Cliff. This session explores the documented trend where women, particularly women of color, are recruited for executive roles only when an organization is in financial turmoil or facing a reputational crisis—essentially being "set up to fail" from day one. Join us for a candid conversation on identifying the signs of a Glass Cliff appointment, strategies for institutional accountability, and how we can move toward a leadership model that prioritizes sustainable success over sacrificial leadership.
