PEAK2024 Keynote | Reimagining Leadership

To be a change agent for equitable grantmaking and transform philanthropy, grantmaking professionals need to reimagine what it means to lead and how to achieve their goals and evolve beyond being role good. In addition, to truly be leaders in the field, organizations must work on themselves and align every aspect of their operations with equity-centered values.

In this conversation between CEOs and grants management directors of grantmaking organizations, PEAK’s Satonya Fair, Conrad N. Hilton Foundation’s Allison Gister, Carnegie Corporation of New York’s Roland Kennedy, Jr., and Skillman Foundation’s Angelique Power explored how their organizations have focused on internal transformation to allow them to show up for their communities differently. These leaders also shared how they have been working on themselves as individuals and taken control of their professional development and careers in order to lead their organizations’ transformations.
