Independent Sector Invites Nominations for Leadership IS Award
Deadline: February 18, 2005

Independent Sector (<a href="http://independentsector.org/">http://independentsector.org/</a>) established the Leadership IS Award in 1999 to recognize organizations that value and develop a culture of investing in the people of the independent sector as they work to build community. The Leadership IS Award supports this principle by acknowledging an organization that incorporates the development of future leaders in its policies and daily operations.

The recipient of the Leadership IS Award receives an award statuette and a gift of $10,000.

The recipient organization will have demonstrated its commitment to internal and external leadership development by embodying and promoting an inclusive and diverse community, including youth and emerging leaders; holding principles of leadership development central to the way the organization functions as reflected in its mission, programs, and activities; possessing and incorporating concrete strategies and systems that encourage and provide opportunities for staff and volunteer leadership development in the organization and the community; and having in place and exercising strategies that advance the vision, mission, and values central to the work of the organization and its desired outcomes.

Anyone may nominate an organization to receive the award. To be eligible, an organization must be a nonprofit but need not be an Independent Sector member.

See the Independent Sector Web site for award program guidelines, information on past winners, and an online nomination form.
