There’s a better way to create meaningful social change.
Marin LEO 2024
There’s a better way to create meaningful social change.
And it doesn’t have to include bureaucracy and burnout. Radical Transformational Leadership for Social Impact (RTL Impact) provides a road map for anyone looking to solve social problems, shift systems, and tap into your greatest potential.
Have you ever thought to yourself...
I love my work, but I’m feeling burned out.
We’re all working hard, but I’m not sure if we’re seeing the right results.
We’re working in silos. Our efforts feel scattered and lack the unity to create real change.
How can we bring more equity to our work?
There is so much red tape. It takes forever to get anything done.
I can’t seem to get buy-in on an idea or program. I keep hitting roadblocks at every turn.
Marin Leadership for Equity and Opportunity is a 4-month professional development program for change-makers at all levels. During our live monthly sessions, you’ll work on an individual project of your choice, connect with other social impact professionals, unlock your inner wisdom and discover practical proven tools to shift systems and create lasting change in your organization and community. Between sessions, you'll have weekly calls with a group of peers to help enhance and deepen learning from each other.
​
For 2024, we will have a specialized focus for participants working on Affordable Housing and Homelessness as well as Climate Justice. These participants will have the opportunity to connect with on another through additional strategy sessions between the main sessions to advance policy, advocacy and strategic design.
