A First Look at “Leading Volunteers” with Dr. Howard Cohen
Sunday, 30 November, 2025
In this special episode of The Beacon Podcast, senior advisor Dr. Karen Baldwin sits down with fellow Lighthouse Counsel senior advisor Dr. Howard Cohen for an engaging preview of his newly published book Leading Volunteers. Drawing on more than five decades in higher education and nonprofit leadership, Howard explains why leading volunteers requires a different mindset than leading employees and why persuasion, respect and process matter so deeply. Karen and Howard walk through real examples, including a powerful dialogue featured in the book, and explore the approaches every board chair and executive should master. If you work with volunteers or serve on a board, this conversation offers practical insight you can put to use right away. A thoughtful introduction to a timely and compelling new resource for mission-driven leaders.
