We Are For Good Podcast - The Podcast for Nonprofits Gather At The Well: Human-Centered Offboarding - Lindsey Fuller
How do we navigate the hardest moments in leadership, without losing sight of our values?
This week on Gather at the Well, Lindsey Fuller returns to explore a topic that doesn’t often get the care it deserves: offboarding. Whether it’s layoffs, transitions, or role closures, Lindsey reminds us that how we say goodbye matters just as much as how we welcome someone in.
She invites us into a more human-centered approach—one that acknowledges the weight of these decisions, the grief that can come with them, and the opportunity for real compassion, even in hard moments.
This episode is a brave, honest invitation to lead with heart—even when it’s hard. Because the way we part ways speaks volumes about the kind of culture we’re building. 💛
Affirmations:
- "I am enough."
- "I choose self compassion."
- "I am learning from my mistakes and the mistakes of others."
- "This decision does not define me."
- "I can take in the past and make the present more healing."
