    Next Level Nonprofit: How to Build A Dream Team and Increase Lasting Impact

    Next Level Nonprofit: How to Build A Dream Team and Increase Lasting Impact

    Next Level Nonprofit: How to Build A Dream Team and Increase Lasting Impact
    Dr. Chris Lambert is the author of Next Level Nonprofit and Founder/CEO of Life Remodeled. Chris originally pursued a degree in marketing at Indiana University with the hope of attending law school and launching a career as a real estate developer. A spiritual awakening during his junior year led to a passion to follow Jesus, and Chris eventually followed a call to Fuller and Gordon-Conwell seminaries, where he earned his MDiv and doctorate in preaching. Moving to Liberia in 2007, he and his wife helped a village raise the necessary resources for a well, farm animals, and a new school building. Upon returning to the U.S., Chris founded a church called Ekklesia. In 2010 he started Life Remodeled, which repurposes vacant school buildings into one-stop hubs of opportunities and helps create neighborhood revitalization that lasts. Additionally, he and his dream team built and launched the Next Level Nonprofit organizational operating system. From the TEDx stage to lists like Crain’s 40 Under 40, Building Design + Construction 40 Under 40, and SMART BUSINESS Dealmaker of the Year, Chris’ reputation precedes him. But it’s the journey ahead—and the people he’s asked to help lead the way—that excites him most.

    Nearly every nonprofit organization I know believes the people they serve deserve the highest level of excellence. However, the challenge is they are so focused on serving those outwardly, they don’t spend enough time, talent, and energy on their inward, internal systems that will ensure greater impact and greater reach. As a result, they cannot serve their communities at the level they want to. I lead a Detroit-based nonprofit that revitalizes neighborhoods. Our first four years were pretty messy, but then we hit our stride. Over the next eight years, our organization invested more than $43 million into Detroit neighborhoods, renovated four school buildings, mobilized more than 77,000 volunteers, and beautified over 2,000 city blocks. We’ve been recognized as one of the best-managed nonprofits and Candid and Charity Navigator have awarded us their highest possible ratings. How did we do it? By creating a system we call Next Level Nonprofit, and I’m going to show listeners how to implement this practical and proven organizational operating system so they will soon be able to build the dream team they've been longing for… and increase lasting impact.

    Love Heals: The Amazing Power of Love
    It's enough even if just 1 person shows up to your event, program, or service. Do for the 1 what you would do for the masses.

    My name is Courtney Green and I am the founder of Love Heals, a nonprofit based out of Lynchburg, VA. From bartender to Executive Director, I have been on a winding road of building Love Heals since 2018 when we hosted our first benefit concert for my friend who had breast cancer. Hired officially in March of 2023, Love Heals is now in a place to become a national organization and I am working hard alongside my team to build a world where no one walks through hardship alone.

The Enneagram and Transformation

As a grateful member of the Institute for Conscious Being founded by Lark and Joe Howell, I found this podcast encouraging and inspiring. If you are drawn to personal healing through a loving and soulful connection, Joe’s words about the ICB and its Enneagram community will be most helpful. Hugh Ballou’s questions and comments were timely and very well chosen. I look forward to listening to more podcasts from this series. Thank you to both Hugh and to Joe.

Great show, relevant topics

Good show specific to non-profit needs but often more broadly relevant. Great questions cause guests to think more deeply and provide answers with depth.
