My experience working with hundreds of nonprofit organizations has provided me with the knowledge and insights to understand the competencies required of today’s nonprofit leadership. I have served in a leadership role on numerous national, state and regional nonprofit boards and business and trade associations. I am passionate about leadership and governance, I am the Founder of the Center for Excellence in Leadership, Governance and Philanthropy at Fairleigh Dickinson University and served as their Executive Director from 2012-2016. I was the Chair of the highly successful “Profiles in Excellence” capital campaign for St. Joseph’s Regional High School in Montvale, NJ, was the board chair of their Board of Trustees and was recently elected into the Green Knights Hall of Fame. I am the author of four books on nonprofit organization success: A Guide to Achieving New Heights: The Four Pillars of Successful Nonprofit Leadership; The Nonprofit Board Therapist: A Guide to Unlocking Your Organization’s True Potential; and The Power of Strategic Alignment: A Guide to Energizing Leadership and Maximizing Potential in Today’s Nonprofit Organizations, and his new book, A Guide to Recruiting Your Next CEO: The Executive Search Handbook for Nonprofit Boards. With my fifth book, Moppin’ Floors to CEO: From Hopelessness and Failure to Happiness and Success, I mixed together the right ingredients for an engaging, illuminating and compelling autobiography: a gut-honest recount of my highly eventful life; lots of engaging stories; and some valuable life lessons. I show how anyone, including a troubled kid from New Jersey, can overcome seemingly insurmountable obstacles, make it to the top and live a happy and fulfilling life.
