I was interviewed recently for Charity Village article on an initiative of Vantage Point (formerly Volunteer Vancouver) for the next generation of nonprofit leadership in Vancouver, for which I am a steering committee member. The Next Leaders Network.
You know there are some days when the words you want to say roll off your tongue exactly as you intend, and others when you can’t believe how or what you’re saying? This interview was on one of the latter days. When I hung up the phone with Karl, and even throughout the conversation, in my head I was thinking, “I can’t believe I just said that.” Nothing bad or controversial, just silly phrases like “betterment of the global family”. Did I really just say that?
Anyway, you can read the article here, and find out more about the Next Leaders Network here.
The next learning/networking session in the Next Leader’s Network is coming up…

Thanx for the acknowledgment ok!
Thanks for the shout-out, Trina.
We are lucky to have your contribution to Next Leaders! As far as I’m concerned, you rocked this interview. Aren’t we all working for the “betterment of the global family”? ;)
