Coming up Thursday on Goddard College Community Radio - leadership! The Northeast Kingdom Collaborative charts a path for developing leaders and developing the economy; plus a US ex-pat in Australia shares practical leadership skills.
9:00 - 10:00 am
The Northeast Kingdom Collaborative held three summits this summer to reach out to people in the state's northeastern and most rural counties that comprise the Kingdom: Caledonia, Essex, and Orleans. They were looking for ideas for developing more leadership and opportunities for professional development—and people responded in droves. They heard that people face challenges like long commuting distances with little public transportation, a dearth of good-paying jobs and child-care possibilities, and negative perceptions about the region. But there's already a collection of opportunities for professional and leadership development, and people in the Kingdom create a rich collection of parades, festivals, and other community celebrations. NEK Collaborative director Katherine Sims will tell us what they heard from people, and what the next steps in their work is.

And how about practical tools for leaders, whether they're in the NEK or the antipodes? Scott Stein was born and raised in the US; he moved to Australia in the '90s and now sprinkles his conversation with expressions like "mate" and "no worries." He's spent decades working with leaders of non-profit and for-profit organizations, and he's distilled from them a bevy of practical skills for better time management and more effective leadership. Whether you're looking for ideas on being more on top of email or holding more effective meetings, or wanting to inspire those you work with, he has some tips in his just-released book, Leadership Hacks (available at locally owned, independent bookstores).
