CEO/ED Book Club Series reading Switch by Dan & Chip Heath

July 10, 2026

Description

Applying “Switch” to Drive Transformational Change: A Virtual Book Club for Nonprofit CEOs & Executive Directors

Join a dynamic community of nonprofit CEOs and Executive Directors for a thought-provoking virtual book club centered on Switch: How to Change Things When Change Is Hard by Chip Heath and Dan Heath. This isn’t just a reading group—it’s a space for strategic reflection, peer learning, and actionable insight.

Through guided discussions and real-world application over the course of two sessions, we’ll explore how the Heath brothers’ framework—the Rider, the Elephant, and the Path—can help nonprofit leaders navigate complex change, inspire teams, and accelerate mission impact. Each session will focus on translating key concepts into practical strategies tailored to the unique challenges of nonprofit leadership.

What to Expect: 

Collaborative Learning: Engage with fellow executives in candid conversations about leading change. 

Practical Application: Apply the book’s principles to your organization’s current initiatives and challenges. 

Peer Support: Share experiences, gain feedback, and build a trusted network of changemakers.

Whether you're leading a strategic or forced pivot, managing board dynamics, or reimagining service delivery, this book club will equip you with tools to lead change with clarity and confidence.  Only thing you need to do is register and then buy or download the book!

Cost: $20 Members, $40 Non-Members
