In this episode of From Our Vantage Point, Maria Turnbull speaks with Hildy Gottlieb from Creating the Future about the concept of catalytic thinking for non-profit boards. Maria and Hildy explore how this innovative framework emerged from the realization that traditional approaches to social change often leave organizations feeling frustrated and underachieving, despite their hard work and dedication. Catalytic thinking shifts the focus from merely changing actions to transforming the underlying thoughts and questions that drive those actions. By changing the questions we ask, we can unlock new possibilities and create a future that differs from our past experiences. Join Maria and Hildy as they discuss the common challenges faced by non-profit boards, the concept of collective enoughness, and a variety of approaches and resources boards can use to rethink their approach to governance and to embrace the power of asking transformative questions. Thank you to our podcast sponsor, Humanity Financial, for their support of these important conversations!
