People of Impact with Nicola Norris from Australia for UNHCR
Join us on The People of Impact Podcast for our latest episode. In this episode, we speak with Nicola Norris about the growing shift of fundraisers stepping into board roles and what that really entails.

The conversation explores the realities behind board service, from navigating responsibility and decision making at the governance level to understanding the boundaries between oversight and execution.
