To effectively navigate the diverse and interconnected challenges society faces, nonprofit leaders need to embrace the principles of intersectional leadership. That means creating inclusive environments that value and respect diverse voices, and understanding the interplay between race, gender, sexuality, and other intersecting identities. By using differences as a strength, leaders can develop comprehensive strategies that address systemic inequities.
