100: Leadership Lessons from the First 100 Episodes (Patton McDowell)SUMMARYReaching the 100-episode milestone on Your Path to Nonprofit Leadership was a wonderful journey thanks to incredible nonprofit leaders who were willing to share their wisdom and experiences with our listeners. Chris Delisio, our guest on episode #24 on the Path, offered to rejoin the show and interview me about the experience since the inaugural episode on November 21, 2019.  Our discussion lifted up many fantastic episodes and the leadership lessons each one produced. Three categories emerged: productivity and management tips, leadership and career development advice, and of course, the best book recommendations and resources our guests could offer.  EPISODE TOPICS & RESOURCESGet your Leadership Self-Assessment and apply for a free registration in one of the next two Mastermind Cohorts!  Click here for the application.Productivity Hacks: self-care routines including diet, sleep, exercise, meditation, reading and journaling; time-blocking and meeting management; Eating the Frog and methods of prioritization; and weekly review ritualsLeadership Lessons: the value of mentors, the importance of lifelong learning plans, the distinction of nonprofit career stages; the importance of organizational culture; and the heightened awareness of race and equity.Ten Book RecommendationsMichael Watkins’ First 90 DaysJohn Gardner’s On LeadershipIbram Kendi’s How To Be An AntiracistLiz Wiseman’s MultipliersDoris Goodwin’s Leadership in Turbulent TimesCarol Dweck’s MindsetAndrew Hollo’s From Impossible to PossibleAdam Grant’s Think AgainKeith Ferrazzi’s Leading Without AuthorityRon Schiller’s The Chief Development Officer
