March LEAD note from Dawn
Welcome to LEAD -- a monthly note from me.
The purpose of the monthly update is to stay connected and give you a thing or two to think about and -- just maybe -- inspire you. The people in my community are amazing and connecting each month means a lot to me. I hope it will be fun for you, too.
Each month you can expect a quick update, a few interesting reads, and my latest blog posts. This month I'm sharing an exciting program invitation, too!
I'll be sharing this LEAD note monthly and sending leadership resources the other weeks. You can sign up for one, both, or neither. Please update your preferences at the bottom of this email so that you get what you want.
I hope you enjoy the 2021 version of LEAD!
Peace and joy,
Thought-Provoking Reads
When I come across something that inspires me or propels me in an unexpected direction, I'll share it here. Perhaps they will do the same for you!
