You Had Me At No: Sustainable Service for Nonprofits
A Talk by SHERYL GREEN (The "How to Say No" Expert, SHERYL GREEN SPEAKS)
About this Talk
Nonprofits are the perfect breeding ground for unhealthy boundaries. You take passionate, community-minded, well-meaning individuals, put them up against a gigantic societal problem, and then give them approximately one-quarter of the resources they need to get the job done… and they will do it.
Unfortunately, they will do it at the expense of their own well-being.
It doesn’t have to be this way.
