Genevieve Aichele, Artistic Director of the NH Theatre Project
Facilitator:
Stephen Gianotti, the Woodland Group
   
Summit keynote, Margaret Wheatley, will share her thoughts on how leaders, especially during times of uncertainty, must move away from practices of top-down directives to a leadership approach which supports continuous conversation, provides clarity of vision & intent and finds ways to invoke the creativity of highly contributing employees.

"Leaders are necessary to foster experimentation, to help create connections across organizations, to feed the system with information from multiple sources - all while helping everyone stay clear on what we want to accomplish and who we want to be."

- Wheatley, Finding Our Way: Leadership for Uncertain Times

During this session, nonprofit leaders Caroline Boyd and Genevieve Aichele will share stories of how they have created an environment within their organization which helps people develop stronger levels of trust, invokes creative problem solving, and taps into the gifts and talents each brings to the organization. 

Consultant Stephen Gianotti who works both nationally and locally as a consultant with the Woodland Group will engage the guest presenters and audience in a dialogue about how to create workplaces which are smart, flexible and resilient.
