Whether you're just starting out or you're decades into your leadership journey, this episode will help you name the lids that might be holding you back—and how to plan ahead to grow beyond them.

In this episode of the Vanderbloemen Leadership Podcast, Jared sits down with William Vanderbloemen to talk about one of the toughest leadership decisions: knowing when it's time to add a team member — and when it's time to let someone go.

Hiring Doers vs. Leaders: How recruiting, training, and retaining volunteers is the real engine behind church and nonprofit growth. Avoiding Cheap Leadership: Why underpaying (or over-relying on free labor) eventually backfires — and what Scripture says about honoring laborers. Building a Resilient Team: Why every leader needs a “vomit list” — and how to plan for the inevitable transitions ahead. Whether you're leading a startup, growing a church, or scaling a nonprofit, this conversation will give you practical tools for building a stronger, healthier team — one wise decision at a time.

What's her secret? A thoughtful, strategic approach to human resources.“We've always had to create an experience for our employees that attracts the talent we need,” she shares. In a sector where nonprofits can't match private sector salaries, Janelle emphasizes designing career ladders and crafting meaningful employee experiences as key levers in recruitment and retention.She also doesn't shy away from accountability: “We need to look back at ourselves. Our staffing changes often come about because of something we've done.” Her refreshing honesty sets the tone for a discussion that's as practical as it is reflective.From the nitty-gritty of job descriptions to navigating a multigenerational workforce and preparing for the “silver tsunami” of retirements, Janelle urges leaders to embrace HR not just as a compliance mechanism, but as strategic scaffolding that supports every function in the organization.The episode explores how nonprofits—especially smaller ones—can structure succession planning without fear, cultivate middle management, and share leadership in ways that increase organizational capacity and decrease burnout.As she puts it, “HR is scaffolding. It's how you manage the work and the people—it can't just be the ED holding it up.”If you're a nonprofit leader navigating hiring woes, team development, or succession worries, watch this for a generous dose of real-world experience mixed with humor, clarity, and heart.Find us Live daily on YouTube!Find us Live daily on LinkedIn!Find us Live daily on X: @Nonprofit_ShowOur national co-hosts and amazing guests discuss management, money and missions of nonprofits! 12:30pm ET 11:30am CT 10:30am MT 9:30am PTSend us your ideas for Show Guests or Topics: HelpDesk@AmericanNonprofitAcademy.comVisit us on the web:The Nonprofit Show

Guest: Kush Sharma, Director Municipal Modernization & Partnerships, Municipal Information Systems Association, Ontario (MISA Ontario)On LinkedIn | https://www.linkedin.com/in/kush-sharma-9bb875a/____________________________Host: Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine [@ITSPmagazine] and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast [@RedefiningCyber]On ITSPmagazine | https://www.itspmagazine.com/sean-martin___________________________Episode NotesIn the third and final installment of the series titled "Building a CISO Office: Mastering Enterprise Risk Management and Aligning Cybersecurity with Business Goals," Sean Martin continues his compelling conversation with Kush Sharma. This episode focuses on the critical aspects of team dynamics, project management, and stakeholder engagement in the realm of cybersecurity.Kush Sharma elaborates on the importance of establishing a well-structured and communicated vision for security operations within an organization. He emphasizes the necessity of setting expectations with security teams before any major project initiation. According to Sharma, transparency is vital. Security leaders must candidly discuss with their teams that not every decision will tip in their favor, but their role is to advocate for security while being adaptable to business needs. He stresses the importance of documenting and following up on risk mitigation measures even if they aren't implemented immediately.Sharma also sheds light on the concept of integrating business and security functions more seamlessly. He proposes not just embedding security into business but also bringing business personnel into the security fold. By having business unit members work within security teams temporarily, organizations can build a robust line of communication and mutual understanding. This cross-functional approach creates internal champions for security measures and helps significantly cut costs as internal personnel generally have lower operational costs compared to external consultants.A significant portion of the episode revolves around the nuanced engagement with different stakeholders, particularly at the executive level. Sharma advises CISOs to view themselves as peers to other C-suite executives, prepared to defend their positions and decisions vigorously. It's crucial for CISOs to maintain this executive-level mindset and openly communicate the broader business implications of security decisions. Sharma highlights that making a business case for security and showing tangible returns on investment can secure better funding and support from the executive team, leading to more substantial investments in long-term security measures.Sean Martin wraps up the episode by touching on the importance of storytelling in cybersecurity. By translating technical achievements and risk mitigation efforts into relatable stories, CISOs can effectively communicate the value of their work across the organization. These narratives help ensure security remains a priority in business strategies and operations, fostering an environment where security considerations are integral to planning and executing new initiatives.In conclusion, the episode provides essential insights for current and aspiring CISOs on navigating the complexities of internal communications, leadership, and strategic planning in cybersecurity. Both Kush Sharma and Sean Martin offer practical advice and strategies that can help elevate the role of security within any organization, thereby protecting its infrastructure and supporting its growth objectives.___________________________SponsorsImperva: https://itspm.ag/imperva277117988LevelBlue: https://itspm.ag/attcybersecurity-3jdk3___________________________Watch this and other videos on ITSPmagazine's YouTube ChannelRedefining CyberSecurity Podcast with Sean Martin, CISSP playlist:
