Community Roles in Ecosystem Building Webinar
Wednesday, October 9th – 1:00 pm – 2:00 pm
As a community leader, it can be so rewarding to contribute to the health of your region, but it can also be exhausting and frustrating sometimes to try to keep up with the endless demands and needs of community members. Together we will explore the dangerous myth of the “lone leader” and will discuss ways to crowdsource a leadership network in your community. Using the CO.STARTERS Community Roles In Ecosystem Building model, we will identify the diverse set of roles needed to more comprehensively address community issues.
