As development professionals, we spend a significant amount of time managing boards and other leadership groups. But what about your own leadership journey? You deserve to share your talents with the world and the sector just as much as your board members do. This thought-provoking discussion and presentation featuring renowned leadership expert and coach Brianna Boggs will empower you with the tools and knowledge you need to both manage the leadership groups in your portfolio and to create your very own personal leadership plan.

Brianna Boggs is a leadership coach and consultant focused on supporting executives and boards of directors through leadership challenges. She focuses on racial equity (dismantling white supremacy culture, supporting leaders of color in white-founded organizations, helping white leadership build tolerance for racial stress, preparing organizations for transition) and fundraising (building skills, confidence, and creative strategies; responsibly transitioning funding relationships from founders to new leaders).
As co-founder and co-facilitator of the Racial Equity Senior Leaders Learning Circle, Brianna developed the curriculum and facilitates a 10-month cohort for nonprofit senior leaders seeking to dig deeply into the personal side of leadership on racial equity and implement new practices to improve their organizations.
Prior to her coaching and consulting work, Brianna’s career focused on fundraising and communications in social justice organizations including GLAD (GLBTQ Legal Advocates & Defenders) where she was Director of Development at the 42-year-old impact litigation organization. As Director of Development and Communications at Trinity Boston Connects, she led public-facing strategies for the organization’s work to unlock opportunity for youth of color in Boston. As Development Manager for StreetSafe Boston at The Boston Foundation, Brianna led fundraising for a gang violence intervention strategy aimed at reducing homicide amongst the most active gangs in the city and, through counseling and job training, providing young people a way up and a way out.
Brianna has served as a volunteer or board member for organizations including the One Love Foundation, the Boston Women’s Fund, GLAD, the Ms. Foundation, the Eastern Massachusetts Abortion Fund, Coro Allegro and InnerCity Weightlifting. She holds a BA in Women’s Studies from the Ohio State University. She is a proud Midwesterner who descends from a country music singer/songwriter and an opera conductor.
