New Report Alert: "Trading Glass Ceilings for Glass Cliffs"
In a new report, "Trading Glass Ceilings for Glass Cliffs: A Race To Lead Report on Nonprofit Executives of Color," from the Building Movement Project, experiences and challenges of nonprofit leaders of color who have attained the top position in their organizations are explored, addressing the struggles of often increased racism on the path to leadership.
The report builds upon the findings of the 2019 Race to Lead Revisited report, as well as a previous report on nonprofit executives from the 2016 Race to Lead survey data. Key findings such as, "executive leaders of color who succeeded White leaders were less likely to report a sense of trust and communication between them and their boards," are provided throughout the report accompanied by recommendations for alternative strategies.
