Executive Roundtables

Building a happier workplace pays dividends in employee engagement, team dynamics, and innovation.

Why should a nonprofit leader care?

In a mission-oriented workplace like a direct service nonprofit or an advocacy organization, you need:

  • high levels of engagement,

  • cohesive teams, and

  • innovative practices

to ensure your people are focused on achieving the mission, not sidetracked by internal squabbles.

But who can you brainstorm with to face the challenges unique to nonprofit organizations?

Join CM&F’s Executive Roundtables for a confidential, expertly-facilitated, peer-to-peer space to learn how to end toxic cultures, improve morale, and retain staff.

Gain peer wisdom & expert insights to keep your team focused on changing the world.

Nonprofit Board Conflicts

How does conflict show up with Boards of Directors of Nonprofits?

New research by CM&F founder, Gina D’Andrea Weatherup, explores this issue from the perspective of executive directors and board members.

The invitation-only roundtable is open to senior nonprofit staff.

On January 15, 2026, Chantilly Mediation and Facilitation will continue its private roundtables for nonprofit executives by diving into conflicts with board members: how these conflicts show up and what senior staff can do to manage the conflicts and mitigate fallout.

If you’re interested, complete the form below to register.

In this one-hour roundtable, you’ll gain:

  • Research Insights: Learn specific, actionable insights based on our recent research into the topic and building upon more than 8 years of experiences working with nonprofits and their boards.

  • Wisdom from your peers: Share your own insights and hear your peers’ experiences with board conflict in a confidential, small group conversation only open to senior nonprofit executives.
