Nonprofit leadership coach Joan Garry interviews grandson of reproductive rights founder, Margaret Sanger and Chair of the International Planned Parenthood Federation. And oh yes, ran PP-NY for nearly a decade.  He knows nonprofits and he knows leadership.

Alex and I had lots to talk about:

• Can a guy who ran an auto manufacturing company become a successful nonprofit CEO?

• How in the wild world of sports can you reduce a board of 75 down to 25 and not wreak havoc everywhere you turn?

• Can a nonprofit organization thrive in spite of a weak board?

• Why Alex Sanger believes that sabbaticals can be huge mistakes?

 

Alex is a smart, passionate nonprofit leader and philanthropist.  We could have used 18 minutes more.  Enjoy!
