Monthly Implementer's Roundtable
You (and up to two additional LEAN-Team Implementers from your organization) are invited to join a monthly Roundtable where members shares results, discuss blockers, and celebrate successes with their peers.
Initially, the objective of the Roundtables is to support each member organization's implementation of the Bootcamp curriculum. These early sessions will be facilitated by a Certified ManageHub Pro who will answer questions and train participants on how to use the Roundtable's standardized meeting format.
As member organizations make progress, the focus of the Roundtables will shift to become a monthly strategy session. At this time, the Roundtable will offer each member an opportunity to report on their organization's progress and hold each other accountable for achieving their stated objectives.
The Roundtables are a wonderful opportunity for you and your team to develop close working relationships with other nonprofit leaders.
