![]() Just as Valentine's Day celebrates the power of love and connection, Odyssey Alliance celebrates the power of passionate partnerships between organizations and their communities to create lasting social impact. This concept emphasizes the importance of loving what you do, who you serve, and the change you create together. As we embrace the spirit of Valentine's Day, I find myself reflecting on the profound impact of partnership and collaboration. At Odyssey Alliance, we believe that "A three-cord braid is not easily broken," a testament to the strength, resilience, and synergy we've experienced with each of our partners.

Super Bowl Sunday meets Strategy Sunday!
As we gear up for the big game today, let's draw parallels between the strategic plays on the field and the game-changing strategies in strategic planning and organizational development. Just like in football, where every play is a result of careful planning and teamwork, successful program evaluation and strategic planning require collaboration, precision, and adaptability. Whether it's a quarterback leading a team to victory or a non-profit navigating towards its mission, the key ingredients are the same: vision, strategy, and the relentless pursuit of goals. 🌟 At Odyssey Alliance, we champion these principles, helping organizations craft winning strategies that drive social impact and change. As you enjoy today's game, remember that behind every touchdown, there's a plan, and behind every successful organization, there's a dedicated team pushing innovative strategies. Let's tackle our goals together and create lasting impact in our communities. Ready to huddle up and bring your A-game to your mission? Reach out to us today. Good leaders usually have amazing backgrounds and experiences. Great leaders guide teams through A+ experiences -- building up other's portfolios. A good leader leads from above, a great leader leads from within. The task of a leader is to treat people as if they are what they ought to be. In that, you help them become what they are capable of being and get them to go where they have never been.
How are you cultivating the success of others around you?
A great leader does not set out to be a leader, but becomes one by her actions. The task of the leader is to get people from where they are to where they have never been.
What are you doing to empower your team? In no way is being a good leader beneath praise. However, it is not the end of the line. The levels of psychological safety in a workplace are influenced by climate and culture.
Culture is behavior that indicates "how we operate" and is reinforced by the collective. Leaders are key in shaping culture — both on teams and in organizations. |
