LUCHA Leadership Series: The Well Leader: Building Personal Resilience and a Culture of Wellness
An initiative of Nonprofit on the Go
Explore why personal well-being is essential to effective leadership, especially in mission-driven nonprofit organizations. Participants will examine how to establish sustainable wellness practices while navigating competing priorities, consider how cultural and community expectations influence approaches to wellness, and explore ways to model healthy leadership behaviors and create environments where their teams can thrive.
Participation in the Leadership Series is free; no application or prior LUCHA participation is required.
LUCHA is designed for Hispanic nonprofit professionals, as well as nonprofit leaders and staff whose organizations serve Hispanic communities. You do not have to identify as Hispanic to participate.
