Summary In this episode, Breanna LaShell discusses the savior complex prevalent in the nonprofit sector, emphasizing the importance of partnership over a savior mentality. She highlights the disconnect between nonprofit leaders and the communities they serve, the dangers of assuming a savior role, and the need for co-creation with those affected by the issues. Breanna advocates for empowering communities to be the heroes of their own stories, fostering trust, and creating lasting change through collaboration. Takeaways Not all nonprofits struggle with the savior complex. The savior complex can occur in any nonprofit space. Leadership teams often lack connection to the communities they serve. Without community input, nonprofits risk solving non-existent problems. The savior mentality places undue pressure on leaders and teams. Effective nonprofits partner with communities to address root issues. Disrespecting the people served undermines trust and effectiveness. Co-creation with communities leads to better outcomes. Partnership allows nonprofits to learn and adapt to community needs.
