Establish partnerships, securing funding and work with my board to address the needs of of our community
Meeting with others in our community to broaden our base of support and expand our programs to meet the current and future needs of our community.
Here's the first step for everyone
Being a YMCA CEO was never in my plans. I always tried to do more than was expected of me in whatever job I had. Others will notice your extra efforts, and will give you the opportunity to try new things. During my career, I saw a need for two different positions that did not exist. I advocated for their establishment and was told it would never happen. I was eventually selected to fill both of those positions.
