From Survival Mode to Thriving: Coaching as OST’s Strategic Advantage
Date & Time
Wednesday, April 15, 2026, 9:00 AM - 10:00 AM
Description

Running OST programs can feel like putting out fires with too few hands. Strong leadership is the backbone of sustainability, yet turnover, burnout, and skill gaps keep organizations in survival mode. Coaching offers a proven path forward: while 86% of Fortune 500 companies use coaching strategically, fewer than 15% of nonprofits leverage it. In this interactive workshop, participants will explore nonprofit-specific ROI data and case studies showing how coaching transforms leadership effectiveness, retention, and culture. You’ll leave with three concrete tools: a readiness roadmap, materials and data to create a funder case, and case studies, equipping you with strategies that will strengthen staff, secure funding, and ensure long-term impact. Designed for OST executives, administrators, system leaders, and funders, this session provides practical strategies to counter turnover, reduce burnout, and make a compelling case for leadership development as a sustainability strategy.
