Leadership is the leverage point.

Digital transformation doesn’t start with tools. It starts with leadership.

We strengthen nonprofits by building tech fluency at the board level and connecting them with leaders who can help navigate AI, cybersecurity, and digital strategy. And we give corporate professionals real board experience—the kind that builds judgment through high-stakes decisions, not simulations.

Training and cohorts to build fluency

Build full-board fluency—so every leader can engage with AI, digital strategy, and innovation.

For Nonprofits:

Our workshops and cohorts train boards and executives on AI, cybersecurity, and digital strategy. Organizations get assessments, action plans, coaching, and peer learning—not just information, but the support to act on it.

Not sure where to start? Our assessments help you understand where your board stands and what would make the biggest difference.

For Corporate Leaders:

Our board leader bootcamps prepare professionals across all functions to serve on nonprofit boards with a tech lens. You don’t need to be an engineer; you need to understand how technology shapes decisions in your domain and be ready to bring that thinking to a boardroom.

For Companies and Funders:

Sponsor training for your nonprofit partners or portfolio organizations. Strengthen the organizations you care about while creating unique engagement and leadership opportunities for your people.

Board service that's real leadership development

Board service is leadership development with real stakes.

Nonprofit board service embeds leaders in conditions that mirror enterprise reality: high-stakes decisions, constrained resources, diverse stakeholders, accountability without direct control. It’s a parallel environment where VPs, CIOs, and senior leaders can sharpen judgment and extend their leadership beyond the enterprise.

For Professionals:

We prepare tech-fluent leaders from all functions—marketing, finance, HR, operations, and technology—to serve on boards where they can make real impact.

For Companies:

We partner with companies to use nonprofit board service as a leadership platform. Develop your people, strengthen your nonprofit partners, and demonstrate your commitment to responsible technology—all through one program.

For Nonprofits:

When you’re ready to add tech-fluent leadership to your board, we help define the role, source candidates, and support a strong start.

Corporate Partnerships That Build Capacity on Both Sides

We work with companies who want to strengthen their nonprofit partners while developing their people. Our partnership models include:

Sponsored training cohorts

Fund AI and tech training for nonprofits in your portfolio or community

Board placement programs

Prepare and place your leaders on nonprofit boards

Research partnerships

Sponsor original research on nonprofit tech adoption

Congress and convening sponsorship

Support the forums where sector standards are set

We design partnerships to fit your organization—from pilot cohorts to enterprise-wide programs. We handle the heavy lifting—program design, nonprofit sourcing, training, matching, and measurement—so your team doesn’t need to build new infrastructure or manage day-to-day coordination. Programs are structured, time-bound, and designed to fit inside existing CSR or L&D systems.

 

Most partnerships move from kickoff to visible activation in 60–90 days, with clear reporting metrics from the start.

Current and recent partners include Dell, Okta, ServiceNow, PwC, Morgan Stanley, and CDW.

For Funders

Protect your tech investments by funding the leadership that makes them work.

You fund technology. But technology investments only work if boards can lead through them.

Only 11% of funders support technology capacity building. Only 9% support technology planning and strategy. 0% mention board engagement.

We help funders like Tipping Point protect their portfolios by building the leadership infrastructure that makes every grant more effective—through training, board development, and field-wide standards.
