WORKSHOP
The Power To Be Authentic: Leadership Development at Work in Foundations
Tuesday, April 27, 2004, 11-12:30 AM
Co-Sponsored by EPIP & GrantCraft
This year EPIP and the GrantCraft Project are co-organizing a very exciting workshop, that will help participants to understand how to take on their
role in their organizations and to lead "from the middle." It will also help those in senior and junior positions to think about how they can either ask
for or provide the support needed by staff to take on their challenging roles. GrantCraft, a project of the Ford Foundation, is a source of practical wisdom for grantmakers on the tools and techniques of effective grantmaking.
The workshop will feature an inter-generational cast of facilitators, speakers and respondents:
Emerson Beyer, Program Associate, GrantCraft Project, Ford Foundation
Omisade Billie Burney, Program Director, The Warner Foundation
Jan Jaffe, Director, GrantCraft Project, Ford Foundation
George Penick, President, Foundation for the Mid-South
Dr. William Richardson, President & CEO, W.K. Kellogg Foundation
Molly Schultz, Program Manager, Jewish Funders Network
Rusty Stahl, Executive Director, Emerging Practitioners in Philanthropy
Stephanie Yang, Program Officer, The Women's Foundation of California

It should be a great evening of networking and fun.
