Manage episode 412924939 series 3568963
When Jennifer Sills first founded the CSNK2A1 Foundation, she wanted to hit the ground running. So she built a board designed to maximize the organization’s chances of success and got to work. But after three years of rapid growth (and lots of early success!), she realized it was time to take a step back and figure out how they could do things better and smarter. In this episode, we learn how Jennifer leveraged her board to launch a nonprofit dedicated to finding a cure for Okur-Chung Neurodevelopmental Syndrome—a rare genetic disorder caused by a mutation in the CSNK2A1 gene—and what they’re doing to turn their early wins into a longterm vision for success.
