Does Your Organization Feel Like It’s Running—But Not Really Going Anywhere?

If so, you’re not alone—and this book is for you.

You might recognize some of these signs:

Strategic plans sit untouched in binders or buried in shared drives.

Your calendar is overflowing—but accomplishing your mission feels out of reach.

You’ve mastered reacting, but crave space to lead with intention.

Your team is passionate—but burning out faster than they can recover.

The fundraising looks good on paper, but the impact feels... shallow.

You’re exhausted from holding it all together.

And somewhere deep down, you wonder:

Is there another way?

If any of this sounds familiar, take heart. You’re not failing—and neither is your organization. You’re just ready for a new way forward.

This book is the story of what happens when one leader finally stops running and is willing to face the hard questions someone else is brave enough to ask.

Not with easy answers. But with clarity. With alignment. And eventually—with a blueprint that works.
