Dr. Tiffany Slater, CEO and Senior Human Resources Consultant for HR TailorMade, discusses the critical issue of ineffective onboarding and leadership in nonprofits. Dr. Tiffany emphasizes that many of our frustrations with team members stem from inadequate training and unclear expectations, arguing that these are often our fault as managers. 

It's tough to admit this, but that’s also the first step in becoming a better manager and leader. Together, we explore practical strategies for improving onboarding processes, including the use of video tutorials and cohort-based training, and discuss how leaders can create a safe space for feedback, set clear expectations, and build trust within their teams. They also address the challenges of inheriting dysfunctional teams and the importance of honest, constructive feedback. This episode is a must-listen for nonprofit executives looking to enhance their leadership skills and create more effective, cohesive teams.
