Every year, the U.S. recognizes March as Women’s History Month, and as the CEO of Center for Executive Excellence, a Woman-Owned Business, I’m excited to celebrate. If you’re wondering how you can celebrate Women’s History Month this month and beyond, here are four excellent tips.
To help celebrate our 10th anniversary, we’re kicking off a 10×100 Campaign to donate $100, each, to 10 nonprofits this March through December. This month, we’re giving $100 to Girls Rising-San Diego, and sharing this Q&A with Executive Director Ashley Blanc.
I am so honored to be able to share – in this 90th edition of CEE News – that Center for Executive Excellence is marking our 10th anniversary this month! That’s one decade of delivering on our mission: Taking you from what is to what is possible.
What started in 2013 as gatherings in my home with a small group of trusted thought leaders to develop our moonshot vision has truly exceeded my expectations. We used Jim Collins’ Vision Framework exercises to craft our core ideology and shared values. We then took Collins’ advice to draft articles that we would love to see published about our organization 15 years in the future.
When we’d completed the articles, our Co-Founder and Scholar-in-Residence, Dr. Tony Baron, read one that he’d hoped to read in the New York Times about how our work was impacting leaders at Ivy League universities. I loved Tony’s vision, but remember thinking how impossible that vision was from what we might ever be capable of.
Question: Our company moved to fully remote earlier this year. Most of my employees are happy about this arrangement, but many of them are starting to push back against the mandate of having webcams on. They’re complaining of Zoom fatigue and the feeling of being micro-managed. Can you share some advice on how organizations are adapting to the camera requirement for remote meetings?
To help celebrate our 10th anniversary, we’re kicking off a 10×100 Campaign to donate $100, each, to 10 nonprofits this March through December. We’ve selected 5 San Diego area nonprofits – TERI, Inc., The Honor Foundation, San Diego Humane Society, Girls Rising-San Diego, and the San Diego Food Bank – since these local nonprofits are close to our hearts.
But, we want to do more. With so many amazing organizations to choose from, we’re reaching out to you to help us narrow down our list to select another 5 nonprofits for our 10×100 Campaign.
Here are 10 more nonprofit organizations that we’re considering donating to:
