Superpower: Sharing joy with adorable farmyard pictures
Chris is a community advocate who fosters change by cultivating synergy and uplifting community voices. At Listen4Good, he empowers philanthropic and nonprofit partners to achieve their strategic goals by leveraging L4G’s comprehensive suite of feedback tools, ensuring that the perspectives of those on the ground are central to progress.
Chris’s journey in the nonprofit sector began with a foundational experience in AmeriCorps, where a focus on development quickly broadened to encompass wider capacity building as he witnessed firsthand the critical needs within communities across the country. This path has instilled in him a passion for dreaming up pragmatic and innovative solutions that genuinely address the challenges and opportunities partners face. Chris is kept rooted by tending to his mini-goats and pigs between calls, deepening his connection to the land and the rhythms of life in community.
Why Feedback?
“Feedback isn’t just a to-do; it’s a sacred responsibility. It’s the continuous, living conversation that ensures we remain aligned with our purpose and, most importantly, with the people we are here to serve. It’s how we ensure that our work isn’t just a fleeting moment, but a lasting legacy of empowerment and positive change.“
