Hi everyone,

Since 2019, I’ve been working with my team at Spark Creative Solutions (SCS) to support small businesses, nonprofits, and startups. I offer fractional leadership, meaning I step in as a temporary leader for organizations that need high-level guidance without the commitment of a full-time executive. Along with fractional leadership, we provide services in board governance, operational performance, marketing communications, and administrative support.

Our team has experience across nonprofit management, DEI, business strategy, and design, focusing on practical and effective solutions.

If you or someone you know is looking for support to strengthen and grow your organization, feel free to reach out. Please share or reshare this post if you think it might be helpful to someone in your network!

Thanks,
Harj

For some, a position of leadership equates to authority over others.

But there’s much more to leadership than authority and power. This type of one-dimensional leadership can generate short-term results. In the long run, it won’t help you earn the trust and respect from the people you lead.

perfectly describes a style of leading that allows others to shine. Culture over everything.

Become aware of what you say and how you think of people who don’t fit into your preconceived notions. That’s the start of interrupting implicit bias."

A delightful introduction to "implicit bias" and a brief tutorial on what to do about it. Don't miss the beads test.
