021: 3 Keys to Maximizing Your Nonprofit Leadership Opportunities (Justin Dionne)SUMMARYJustin Dionne knew he had a great opportunity on his hands when he arrived at the Cain Center for the Arts.   As a relatively new executive director, he also knew he needed to maximize all of his productivity and professional development resources to get this new organization off the ground as well as navigate its very aspirational campaign of $25 million to build a new performing arts center.  Justin and I had a great conversation on Episode #21 of The Path and explored many of his tools and tactics to maximize his talented board of directors, engage the regional community and key donors, and how he built a staffing structure that is poised for even greater growth and success.  We also had the added bonus of filming our episode at the studio of Wheelhouse Media, whose talents are on display for Justin and many nonprofit organizations across the country.  “Big impacts don't come without big risks; you have to be willing to try."ABOUT JUSTINJustin is in his third year as Executive Director of Cain Center for the Arts.

21: 3 Keys to Maximizing Your Nonprofit Leadership Opportunities (Justin Dionne)

In episode 91 of the podcast, I interview one of my clients to discuss his success over the last year. Justin Dionne, is the artistic director at Lee Street Theater in Salisbury, NC. He is also one of my closest friends and one of my original online clients. One year ago, Justin told me--above all--his goal was to workout for one year. Weight loss was a goal but for Justin, he knew he needed the accountability my coaching provided and the pushing from me to achieve his overall goal. Not only did Justin achieve this goal, but he lost 9 inches off his waist, 20 pounds of fat and added over 10 pounds of muscle. Making the gym and being active is now a priority for him. Listening to this episode, you'll discover what Justin learned over his journey as my client. What strength goals he achieved, where he faltered, the lessons he learned about how alcohol can affect your goals, and where he wants to go from here.
