Executive Directors Leadership Institute
Still Accepting Applications

brochureESC is set to help 15 nonprofit Executive Directors reach new heights through our third Wells Fargo Executive Directors Leadership Institute, which begins on September 25.  

The application deadline has been extended to August 29, as we still have a few slots open.  If you know anyone who would be suitable for this program, please contact us today!

This is the advanced program for executive directors who have been in the position five years or more.  The Institute includes six full-day seminars every other month, an ESC executive coach and a project—and allows participants to develop a mutually beneficial network with their peers in the Institute.  

The completed application should be faxed to ESC at (213) 381-2893 or can be submitted online here.

Words of Inspiration

I expect to pass through life but once.
If therefore, there be any kindness I can show,
or any good thing I can do to any fellow being,
let me do it now, and not defer or neglect it,
as I shall not pass this way again.
~William Penn
