Join Marisa DeSalles as she visits with comedian, improviser and team building strategist Betsaida Lebron. Betsaida will be conducting a virtual session at the What If Conference on the power of play and how it can reduce burnout for employees. Betsaida started her career working in mental health advocacy and now uses her experience in mental health and improvisation to teach adults in the workplace how to shed their armor and become more vulnerable and playful in their work and as a result, more fulfilled. Marissa and Betsaida talk about the importance of nonprofits focusing not just on their mission, but on how they treat their employees who passionately carry out that mission. They talk about the importance of joy and humor in the workplace and how nonprofits should foster that experience with their employees even when the mission they serve is often very serious.

I was introduced to this episode's guest through another non-profit we have yet to profile, however, the praise was effusive for the work they're doing and the story of how they came to be is just as compelling. It shows the incredible commitment, passion and performance of the organization's leadership. Tiffany Loeffler is Founder and Executive Director of The Alliance. Not only will you be amazed at how the organization developed but of no less significance is how it serves both our community's and its' membership constituents. It's a very unique approach to a full 360 degree engagement of all involved. For more information, you can find Tiffany on the website by clicking the following URL. www.defendingthecause.org
