Description

Matt talks to Elena Brokaw, Executive Director of the Museum of Ventura County (and despite what her LinkedIn profile might say, she is the official--not the “interim” --director)

The pair discuss why Elena loves working for nonprofit, how she and her team saved the museum from imminent closure, how working for Parks & Rec in real life is nothing like the TV show, as well as Elena’s ambition to be discovered as “Annie” when she was growing up on an avocado farm.

When non-profit professional and co-founder of Envision Consulting, Matt Kamin, listened to podcasts about the NPO world, he discovered two things: One, he wanted to know more about the people behind the organizations, the inspired leaders and badass do-gooders whose tireless efforts keep things running, especially during times of crises. And two, he needed a drink. Something hard to help him get through the often dense and dry content in these podcasts. That’s why Envision Consulting is launching Non-profit on the Rocks, a podcast that goes behind the scenes of the organizations and gets real, over drinks, with the people who make them possible. So, pull up a seat, pour yourself a drink—maybe one Matt tells you how to make! —and join the lively conversation.
