Peer Coaching

Registration Deadline for Fall Cohorts is August 5th!

Today's nonprofit leaders face monumental decisions on a regular basis. The outcome of each decision has a huge impact on each individual organization - and the entire sector. In order to advance a powerful nonprofit sector, EA alliance of nonprofits seeks to strengthen each leader and support every decision.

Peer Coaching circles are highly focused groups of peers who meet regularly to assist each other with:
  • problem solving
  • expand perspectives
  • highlight alternative solutions
These moderated groups are composed of six to eight members with varying levels of expertise and experience to contribute to the success of your organization. Every member of the Peer Coaching Circle commits to active participation through eight monthly meetings.

How they work?

  • Cohorts are formed based on the following responsibilities:
Executive Directors/CEOs with less than 6 years experience - Starts Fall 2010
Executive Directors/CEOs with more than 7 years experience - Starts Fall 2010
CFOs/Directors of Finance - Starts Winter 2011
Development Directors - Starts Fall 2010
Board Chairs/Board Presidents - Starts Fall 2010
  • Confidentially is a primary expectation
  • Meetings are three hours long and logistics are managed by EA
  • Each member is allotted an equal time slot each session to raise issues particular to their organization
  • Members choose their own issues to explore and resolve. They take a complete look at the situation, explore alternative solutions, set realistic goals, and take positive actions
  • Coaching involves a variety of approaches and skills, including: active listening, probing questions, brainstorming, supportive challenges, while occasionally sharing personal materials and experiences

Here's a first-hand account...

“My experience with the Peer Coaching Program has been very important to my job. As a CFO of a nonprofit organization, I value the opportunity to engage my peers on relevant topics that only professionals in the finance field can relate too. The level of knowledge and information sharing has been critical to advancing new ideas, problem solving and building a network of support.  Most importantly, everything that is covered in Peer Coaching,

I have been able to apply in day-to-day circumstances.  The Peer Coaching Program is an invaluable and relevant resource.”

Beth Murphy, CFO – Camp Fire, USA
