February Topic:

Breaking Barriers: Unveiling the Complex Landscape of BIPOC Underrepresentation in Non-Profit Leadership



There is a troubling pattern of underrepresentation of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) in non-profit leadership around the country. This is in stark contrast to the fact that more than half of the clients served by these institutions are BIPOC. This lack of BIPOC representation in the seats of power is reflective of a complex web of barriers that BIPOC staff and leaders face.  In this presentation, Dr. Lisa Martin and Marc Kutner will share the results and insights gleaned from focus groups and 1:1 interviews with over 100 BIPOC executives, BIPOC emerging leaders, and white executives. Participants will be encouraged to process the results, share their own experiences, and identify strategies for increasing BIPOC representation in executive leadership teams and on boards.

Presenters: Dr. Lisa Martin and Marc Kutner, MSW, MPA

Undoing Racism^® Executive Collective Overview:

This group is designed for people in senior leadership in their organizations, particularly executive directors and their senior leadership teams, who have substantial decision-making authority and are invested in nurturing the organizations they lead to become more equitable, just, and anti-racist institutions. The group offers the opportunity to gather with peers and grapple collectively and honestly with the challenges leaders encounter and to build strategies and support for overcoming those challenges. Others are also welcome.

Our work is guided by the principles of The People’s Institute for Survival and Beyond, who are recognized internationally for their Undoing Racism^® Workshop and Community Organizing Workshop.
