This is the introduction to our five-part series, Lessons on Leadership, authored by Executive Director Eliza Pesuit as she celebrates her 10-year anniversary leading Global Glimpse.

 

 

Building a Sustainable, High-Impact Nonprofit.

When I tell people that I lead a nonprofit, I often get a response like… “Wow, that’s so nice. That must be really meaningful. Do you do that full time?”

Yes. I run a $5 million dollar mission-driven business, full time. 

Building, sustaining, and growing a high-impact nonprofit organization takes guts, resilience, and a commitment to do what is right even and especially when it is hard.

In the following series of vignettes, I have distilled our learning over the past 10 years building Global Glimpse down to five valuable lessons. I hope they will serve as a guide for others committed to raising the bar in ways that will deepen and expand the important work we do across the nonprofit sector.
