We exist to

Close the gap in access to leadership development

Our Mission

To provide transformational access and support to those answering the call to lead in nonprofit and community-benefit organizations, especially those who have been overlooked, under-resourced, and undervalued.

Our goal is to build an eco-system of support for leaders who would otherwise be leading alone.

Aspen groves show us the way. Each tree links into a shared root system that trades strength, nutrients, and resilience. Leaders grow and thrive the same way when the network holds.

We do this through:

Cohort Experiences

We support leaders to participate in leadership development cohorts for professional growth.

Individual Support

Contact us for information about how we can support you and your individual leadership development needs.

Networking Opportunities

We host events to build community between like minded leaders and establish relationships of mutual benefit.

"We are the leaders we have been

looking for."
