What is AZ Emerging Leader’s Network?
AZ Emerging Leader’s Network is a Learning Community, crafted and facilitated by a collective of diverse consultants committed to centering equity and justice in our work. Our offerings are solely driven by the expressed needs of Arizona-based Nonprofit Leaders who’ve embraced leading their organizations with an equity lens. As such, the work changes as the Network participants’ needs change - from a Community of Practice to Action-Planning Cohorts to JEDI-focused Executive Coaching. In 2024, we are excited to bring our first Justice, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion Virtual Learning Series to the AZ Nonprofit Community.
