WHO YOU ARE:

You Believe in New Seneca Village’s Mission to provide restorative residency experiences that invite leaders and healers to access expansive resources—time, space, nature, community, and consciousness—to sustain their collective visioning for a just future.
You Are a Big-Picture Thinker Who Connects Vision to Action. You move easily between vision and action. You can see the big picture—how all the pieces connect—while also rolling up your sleeves to make things happen on the ground. You balance strategy with care for the details that bring it to life.
You Innovate and Diversify Revenue Streams. You design and refine creative approaches to resourcing the mission; testing new ideas, partnerships, and funding models that strengthen sustainability and adapt to shifting political and philanthropic contexts.
You are Detailed-Oriented. You translate strategy into execution through clear systems, consistent communication, and reliable follow-through—building trust across the Village through operational excellence and care.
You Balance Collaboration and Independence. You know when to align and when to carry vision forward with courage and clarity. You value collective wisdom while contributing your own ideas and grounded perspective to shared decisions.
You Are a Strategic Communicator. You use words to build connection, understanding and engagement, communicating with clarity and humility across audiences—from Villagers and staff to boards, funders, and partners. You share stories and insights that move people toward collective purpose and action.
You Center Restoration & Healing in Your Leadership. You embody and steward restoration, connection, and visioning not as side practices, but as foundational leadership modalities. You hold the tension between urgency and rest, ensuring systems, rhythms, and structures support longevity, not burnout.
You Practice Relational Leadership. You lead with integrity, humility and curiosity, recognizing and drawing out the strengths of those around you. You build trust and clarity through guidance and care, creating the conditions for people to lead with confidence and accountability.
You Are a Systems Thinker and Knowledge Steward. You design and codify organizational systems that make knowledge accessible and sustainable — not dependent on any one person. You document institutional memory, clarify workflows, and build processes that support long-term staff learning and development.
