Last year I had the pleasure of attending the 2008 Nonprofit Times Power and Influence Top 50 awards ceremony and meeting some amazing movers and shakers in the nonprofit sector.
The class of 2009 is out, and I'm thrilled to see Holly Ross, Executive Director at NTEN and Sharon Burns, CIO of the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation make the list for the first time. I was able to spend some time last year during Sage Summit with both Holly and Sharon - they both are remarkable individuals!
Congratulations!
