Are you driven by a cause you care deeply about, but struggle to find the time or don’t have the know-how to make a real difference? Introducing the Causie—an intentional, passionate advocate who transforms their purpose into powerful, lasting change.
Causies make a substantial, long-term commitment to serve their cause with more than a financial donation. They’re on a mission to create change and to lead, often by securing a seat on the board of directors of the organization that best aligns with their passions, values, and goals.
In this captivating guide, Rob Acton, Founder and CEO of Cause Strategy Partners, shares his proven process for becoming a Causie:
-
Identify Your Cause. Whether you’re swimming in a sea of passions or you think you have a cause but it’s not focused, Acton will walk you through how to pinpoint your cause and help you determine your “Causie style.”
-
Find Your Fit. With potentially dozens of organizations serving your cause, Acton will help you home in on the perfect match for your style and impact goals.
-
Make a Stellar First Impression. Learn how to skillfully introduce yourself and set the stage for success, making the most of your first encounter with the organization. It’s true that you only get one chance to make a first impression!
-
Increase Your Engagement. Prepare to land a coveted seat on the board of directors by understanding board member responsibilities and Acton’s “Higher Standard of Board Service.”
-
Start Strong and Confident. Articulate the specific influence you plan to make from your new leadership position – what Acton calls your “Personal Impact Hypothesis,” and hit the ground running.
Woven throughout are Acton’s own story and real-life examples of busy professionals from all walks of life who have transformed their passion into powerful advocacy through board leadership.
If you’re ready to commit to a purpose larger than yourself, this is your roadmap to becoming a Causie and maximizing your personal impact on your cause. Don’t let a busy life or the feeling that you don’t know where to begin prevent you from starting your journey from success to significance. Become a Causie and harness your passion to make a lasting difference!
