  • The Timeless Secrets of Influential Leaders

    The Timeless Secrets of Influential Leaders
    Nov 4 2025
    In this episode of The Non-Profit Exchange, I had the pleasure of speaking with Corey Poirier, an award-winning speaker, author, and founder of Blue Talks. Corey shared his journey and the inspiration behind Blue Talks, a global platform that merges business, life, and the universe, allowing individuals to discover their authentic voice and expand their influence. We delved into the importance of authenticity in leadership, especially for nonprofit and faith-based leaders. Corey emphasized that authenticity is the new currency in leadership, as people crave genuine connections and transparency. He discussed how leaders can overcome the tendency to hide behind titles and instead foster an environment where everyone feels valued and empowered to contribute. Corey also highlighted the significance of storytelling in effective communication. He addressed the common fear of public speaking, explaining that it often stems from the fear of the unknown. By preparing thoroughly and focusing on the audience rather than oneself, leaders can become more comfortable and impactful speakers. We explored practical strategies for improving public speaking skills, such as joining organizations like Toastmasters or offering no-fee talks to local chambers of commerce. Corey shared his personal experiences and insights on how to build confidence and competence in public speaking. As we wrapped up, Corey offered valuable advice on staying grounded and aligned with one’s purpose, including the creation of a personal mission statement. This episode is packed with wisdom for nonprofit leaders looking to enhance their influence and create lasting change in their organizations. I encourage you to check out Corey’s website, coreyporeamedia.com, and explore the resources available through Blue Talks. Thank you for tuning in, and I look forward to our next conversation!

    In this episode of The Nonprofit Exchange, I had the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Wayne Light Brown, the founder of Avoid Being Average. We delved into the theme of authentic leadership and purpose-driven success, exploring Dr. Brown's remarkable journey from artist to creative entrepreneur and leadership strategist. Dr. Brown shared his roots in Harlem and the Bronx, emphasizing the importance of community and service in his life. He discussed how his experiences with graffiti and art therapy shaped his understanding of healing and transformation, leading him to create programs that support young entrepreneurs through his nonprofit, URISE. A key focus of our conversation was Dr. Brown's principle of "reviewing results over reasons," which challenges nonprofit leaders to prioritize tangible outcomes over excuses. He highlighted the importance of revenue in sustaining nonprofit missions, urging leaders to embrace a mindset shift that recognizes the necessity of financial health for creating real impact. We also explored the concept of living your true expression, which Dr. Brown defined as being authentic and transparent in leadership. He emphasized that authenticity is crucial for shaping organizational culture and fostering trust within teams. Throughout the episode, Dr. Brown shared valuable insights on overcoming systemic barriers and unlocking potential in underserved communities. He encouraged leaders to practice vulnerability and transparency, reminding us that these qualities are essential for effective leadership. As we wrapped up, Dr. Brown offered practical daily practices for aligning purpose with results, including the transformative exercise of morning pages, inspired by Julia Cameron's "The Artist's Way."

    Building a Culture of Generosity: The Veritus Way of Donor-Centered Fundraising
    Oct 21 2025
    In this episode of the Nonprofit Exchange, I had the pleasure of speaking with Jeff Schreifels, a seasoned expert in nonprofit leadership and fundraising. Jeff, the principal of Veritas Group and co-author of "It's Not Just About the Money," shared his journey into the world of philanthropy, which was deeply influenced by his father's commitment to giving, even during tough times. We explored the misconception that fundraising is solely about money. Jeff emphasized that true philanthropy is about building authentic relationships with donors and understanding their passions and interests. He highlighted the importance of viewing donors as key stakeholders in the mission of a nonprofit, rather than just sources of funding. Jeff also addressed the challenges many nonprofits face with their boards and the need for clear expectations and training around fundraising. He pointed out that while board members may have passion, they often require guidance to effectively contribute to fundraising efforts. Throughout our conversation, we discussed the shift from transactional to transformational fundraising, stressing that successful fundraising is about creating meaningful connections with donors. Jeff shared practical steps for nonprofit leaders to foster a donor-centered culture, including embracing the idea that staff and donors are integral to the mission. This episode serves as a powerful reminder that fundraising is not just about chasing dollars; it's about inspiring generosity and building lasting relationships.
