Leadership Is Important In Non-Profits

While we as a society may think fundraising is easy, a CEO may not think so. CEOs do not only have to be involved with the fundraising nowadays but they have to keep in mind which fundraiser is actively involved, the staff of people, and the fundraising event as well. It's not just about raising money, it is a much bigger task than what others may think that it is. Which is why there are multiple jobs of a CEO of a nonprofit, fundraising is only a portion of the tasks.

Leadership is also important in being the CEO of a nonprofit. Warren and Burt thought just that by comparing managers and leaders. Leaders are focused on the overall representation of the organization with the mission being known, whereas managers make sure things run smoothly in the organization with day to day issues that come up. While it is good to have things running smoothly in your non-profit, it's also important for those that are CEO's so make sure they are fulfilling their tasks in a way that others will remember them by so that they can become their own CEO's someday. I believe that is the end goal, for staff members on a non-profit organization to work towards being at the very top. Which is why it is harder to succeed whether your working to be a CEO or already a CEO.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
