Jean Block, Nonprofit Consultant Extraordinaire

Jean Block has 55 years of experience in leadership and training within the national nonprofit sector.

What’s more – she’s been FUNdraising since she was 13, has published nine books and manuals, and doesn’t walk away from challenging work. Jean’s career has largely focused on supporting nonprofits through transition, be it evolving into social ventures to ensure their independence, or developing boards into high-functioning teams.

Though recently retired and tending to a robust garden, Jean continues to volunteer and support her greater community, inspiring many people to continue moving toward their purpose. In this episode, Jean shares about why we should be putting our energy where our hearts are, how nonprofits have an opportunity to change the game, and, I think, why we should be following her lead.
