Keep your people going and growing

leadership & Talent development for Youth-Focused organizations

This is complex work, and you can do it.

Your purpose is to support young people—their growth, their development, their agency—so they can experience improved lives.

Your work is embedded within complex systems like Cross-Sector Initiatives, Place-Based Partnerships, Public Agencies, Nonprofits & Networks.

And while you are committed, you know that this work—the work of social change—is hard. You may feel:

• Lonely

• Depleted

• Fractured

• Exhausted

• Overwhelmed

• Powerless

In order to be most effective in your work, you must experience a fulfilling life for yourself.

But how do you actually do that? As our field is inundated with negative messages all.the.time. about your safety, your value, your intelligence, your role.

The media…The politics…The pay…The staffing shortages…Just to keep going each day is difficult enough. But you also need to generate solutions. You are looking for:

• Innovative program design and management solutions

• Sustainable staffing and capacity building strategies

• Leadership approaches that decrease busyness and increase happiness

• New revenue models and more influence overall

• Relief from the cycle of reinventing the wheel

• Opportunities to learn from peers' experiences, rather than solely relying on expensive consultants

You do not have to shoulder this alone.

We’ve got you.

Hi 👋 We are Development Without Limits

We help leaders Like you who are committed to changing systems so that young people can be successful:

• build upon what you already do well

  Move into a life of abundance, joy and ease. Deepen your leadership vision and skills to include your strengths, the strengths of your team and the strengths of the community you work within.

  
  

• find your people

  Connect with other committed leaders and educators who are ready for real change. Develop and find the talented individuals you need in order to keep this important work going.

  
  

• step into your own power

  Claim your space to change broken systems. Share your influence and resources to generate more community commitment and action to change the current tides.

We are actually here to support you, your community’s vision, your team. Here’s what we are not:

>We are not the mouthpiece of a funder.

We listen to you and help you make decisions that balance funder priorities and the needs of your community.

>We are not academic researchers.

We are sharp, action-oriented and practice-focused. We help you make sense of current research to apply within your own context.

>We are not punitive and overcomplicating.

We recognize that this work is messy and we help you generate and find your best next steps—not give you more reasons to feel bad or overwhelmed.
