A Warm Reception in Winter

By David La Piana

March 18, 2008

The arrival of my new book, The Nonprofit Strategy Revolution, came just in time for a series of scheduled workshops in the Midwest.

In fact, the book arrived at the Kellogg Foundation in Battle Creek, Michigan about the same time I did.

Battle Creek is not easy to get to, especially the way I did it. I started in San Francisco, sat on the runway for 2 hours, then missed my connection from Chicago to Kalamazoo. Luckily United rebooked me on the last American flight out and I arrived in Kalamazoo late at night, then I got a ride for the last half hour of the trip into town.

The reception in Battle Creek was warm and enthusiastic, with a capacity group of local nonprofit leaders and consultants. I had a panel discussion in which three local leaders described their own experiences with strategy and planning, and overall it was a success.

On to Detroit, then Minneapolis.
