Executive Director 101 Lab (Spring 2025)

Executive Director 101 supports first-time, or incoming, executive directors (EDs) with practical skills and knowledge to succeed in their role.​

In this lab we will explore the eight domains of the ED position: Leadership, Governance, Program and Service Management, Human Resources, Fund Development, Financial Management, Community and Public Relations, and Administration.​

Suggested participants: New and incoming executive directors (including other similar roles like CEOs, artistic directors and managing directors) who are looking for some structure and insight to the EDs key responsibilities.

Important note! If you are an executive director with more than 1 year of experience in the role, our Advanced Executive Lab may be a better fit for you.

New this September: Executive Director 101 – Indigenous Leadership Cohort is a Lab designed for, and available uniquely to, Indigenous non-profit leaders in BC, in partnership, including co-facilitation, with Indigenous Perspectives Society and with financial support from Vancity.
