Create Good 2026: Lead Change That Sticks!

I’m thrilled to be speaking at the Create Good 2026 conference for nonprofit leaders and communicators March 25-26 in Durham, NC!

This conference features so many amazing speakers, including an opening keynote from the one and only Vu Le, and sessions by nonprofit marketing legend Kivi Leroux Miller, trauma-informed storytelling expert Maria Bryan, youth leadership powerhouse Sonali Ratnasinghe, and many more.

My session - Beyond the Big Announcement: Lead Change that Actually Sticks! - is designed for nonprofit leaders and communicators who want to move beyond a “launch and leave” mindset for organizational change and instead lead transitions in ways that truly work.

We’ll explore:
→ What people actually need before, during, and after change
→ How to show up as a confident, supportive change leader
→ Practical, research-backed approaches to increasing clarity and addressing resistance to change
→ What to focus on so that change doesn’t just sound good on paper, but actually succeeds in real life
