Hastings & Prince Edward non-profit CEOs and leaders will have a chance to participate in a six-month training program to help strengthen skills needed for non-profits.
United Way Hastings and Prince Edward is partnering with the management consulting firm Laridae to provide a Leadership Development Program at a discount price based on the size of the organization.
The usual cost is $2,500.
Director of Community Impact at United Way, Jodi Cooper, says the leadership training leads to community capacity building which is vital right now for the non-profit sector.
Cooper added, “We’re so happy to partner to bring this training to our community. Especially to provide the scholarship opportunity at a time when budgets are already being stretched,” Cooper said. The goal of the program is to build the skills and expertise of CEOs and leaders of non-profits while strengthening connections with other non-profit leaders throughout the HPE region.”
In a statement release, CEO Danielle Rocheleau said, “Laridae is a management consulting firm dealing exclusively with non-profits. We are always excited to collaborate with community organizations and enter into a partnership with United Way of Hastings & Prince Edward to collectively build the capacity of local non-profit leaders in the HPE communities.”
The training offered to senior leadership and management allows people to look at the bigger picture of how their business is involved, Rocheleau added.
