Executive Sanctuary

is like no other nonprofit executive development program.

In a supportive, small group of other seasoned nonprofit CEOs, we meet in a retreat-like setting, to overcome obstacles, convert bold ideas into action, build new strategies, and scale impact, without sacrificing well-being. We talk about the hard stuff affecting the nonprofit industry and look to address industry-wide challenges together.

We are on a mission to ensure that the leader within you has the inner strength, resilience and vision to lead with greater impact.

We tackle the hard issues

Navigate and accelerate your journey as a leader in a hyper-curated peer group, facilitated by master executive coaches. Executive Sanctuary brings leaders together from many sectors—food, education, criminal justice, legal aid, social services, health care, arts, to address individual and systemic challenges. The nonprofit sector is at a tipping point, facing so many issues at once—Covid, racial equity, staffing shortages, competitive recruiting, funding challenges and boards not fully comprehending the depth of these challenges. Our time together allows us to step back and assess the big picture to collectively contribute our experience and solutions.
