A couple of quick leadership links. . .

Elisa Ortiz of the Nonprofit Congress was kind enough to invite me to do a guest post over at the Nonprofit Congress Blog. Here it is--Leading from the Inside Out. Elisa was one of the attendees at our retreat last month and I can tell you that she's awesome--energetic and passionate, exactly what we look for in a young leader.

Speaking of awesome, energetic leaders, Rosetta Thurman of Perspectives from the Pipeline has a terrific post in honor of Martin Luther King Day in which she asks what would have happened if the 26 year old King had been told he was "too young" to take a front seat in driving the civil rights movement. Good question--something worth pondering as we look at a new generation willing to assume the mantle of leadership, but wondering how to go about doing it.
