Ready to Lead?
By: grabitsdm | May 6, 2008
I recently read the newest study put out by the Annie E. Casey Foundation and Meyer Foundation called Ready to Lead? Next Generation Leaders Speak Out. The study is extremely interesting and thought provoking. Many of the issues that the respondests hit on in this study echo some of my own fears about the nonprofit sector. Being a 23 year old just starting out in this sector and coming in with a lot of college debt, I wonder some days how I will ever pay it off with the low pay going to nonprofit employees. I love the sector greatly and the people I've met along the way. My intentions are to stick in the sector for the length of my career. I'm just wondering if anyone else has read the study and what their thoughts are.
