Let us delve deep into the transformative power of compassionate and strategic leadership in driving positive social change!
In this episode, we explore the dynamic synergy between empathy and authenticity, uncovering their pivotal role in driving substantial impact within non-profit organizations and communities. Today, we converse with Alyssia Palacios-Woods, the Executive Director at Capital IDEA, who sheds light on harnessing these twin forces for meaningful change.
Alyssia boasts over ten years of experience fostering workforce development initiatives in Central Texas, embodying the roles of a community builder and non-profit leader. With a Certified Fund Raising Executive (CFRE) designation, she remains steadfast in adhering to the highest standards of non-profit operations and fundraising. Notably, before her tenure at Capital IDEA, she led the Austin Young Chamber as its President & CEO, advocating for regional cooperation, fostering entrepreneurship, nurturing talent, and promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion. Alyssia's dedication extends to her involvement in various initiatives, including the Opening Central Texas for Business Task Force during COVID-19 recovery, the Austin Homelessness Task Force, and the National YP Week Advisory Council. Also, her contributions have not gone unnoticed, as evidenced by her nomination for the Austin Business Journal Profiles in Power in 2019 and her recognition as a finalist for Austin Under 40 in 2023.
