Creative Leadership in the Workplace

On this week’s episode of Humanize Your Workplace, we are joined by Jeannette Fournier.

Before joining Caring for Friends, as Executive Director, she provided strategic management advice to nonprofits to help increase their capacity while at Dunleavy & Associates. Prior she served as Playworks Pennsylvania’s Executive Director, scaling the regional bullying prevention and school climate program to serve thousands of students in Greater Philadelphia. She has also worked on policy and advocacy at think tanks in Washington, DC and supported various start-up nonprofits. She has served as a member of the UNESCO-World Economic Forum education task force, on Girls Leadership’s Board of Directors, and is active in her church.

Jeannette received her BA in Political Science from Drew University and her Master of International Law with International Relations from Kent University. At home she enjoys oil painting, gardening, and cooking with her children, husband and friends.

We chat about what it looks like to be a creative leader, how we can bring play into our teams and the workplace, and what tactics can leaders use to handle bullying in the workplace.
