"At the core, it’s about people." – Bill Coy, Director, Leadership Practice
La Piana Consulting works to build the capacity of the nonprofit sector through the design and implementation of leadership development programs. A hallmark of our Leadership Advanced model for leadership development is an intensive learning opportunity for executive directors, designed using a peer learning community model, in which small groups of executive directors commit to learn together over an extended period, often a year.
Our programs guide both new and experienced nonprofit leaders on a learning journey through skill-building, peer networking, and the evolution of a personal leadership style. Our approach helps nonprofit leaders to achieve both greater organizational success and deeper personal satisfaction. We know it works: participant surveys, funder satisfaction, and two independent evaluations prove it.
We integrate several approaches to leadership development: personal and professional, practical and intellectual. Our programs are customized to meet the needs of both sponsoring funders and participating leaders.
