Why Humility and Alignment Are Crucial to Your Leadership | Wendy F Adams

“What does it feel like to be on the other side of your leadership?”

Today’s guest, Wendy F. Adams, is the founder and strategic leadership coach of Cultivate for Good, as well as the host of the Cultivate for Good podcast, serving nonprofit leaders across the US.

In this episode, we talk about how :
✔️ Leadership starts with you — and how you own it. 
✔️ Living and leading from a place of thriving rather than surviving. 
✔️ Alignment builds trust and resists mission drift. 
✔️ Your mission is not dependent on your strength, but His. 
✔️ How do we live with compassionate and interruptible accountability? 

🎯 Why does alignment matter in leadership? 
🎯 Why is alignment important? 
🎯 What is compassionate accountability? 

Wendy equips executive leaders with strategic tools to build healthy, effective teams and achieve mission success. Her mantra—Mentor. Motivate. Mobilize.—drives her work, empowering leaders to align mission with movement through authentic, accountable relationships. You’ll hear how she fosters relational leadership to create thriving organizations.
