In this episode, we had the privilege to speak with Lee Lambert on navigating a successful non-profit career and his strategies to leading the largest statewide bicycling nonprofit. Lee is the Executive Director at Cascade Bicycle Club and Washington Bikes. He has had a long career in public service and nonprofit leadership prior to his current role, with stints as Executive Director of City Year Seattle/ King County and the Washington STEM Network. It has come full circle to pairing his professional and personal passions through his work.

Hosted by Carmen Leung and Kayla Quijas, Everything Non-Profit is a conversation grounded in the real, often messy, journey from being a contributor within an organization to steering its direction. As co-founders of Puget Sound Project Management Volunteers (PMVPS), they bring a unique dual perspective: they run a non-profit themselves, dedicated to linking skilled project managers with mission-driven organizations, and they've navigated the trenches of operational work. This podcast digs into that full spectrum. You'll hear candid discussions about the tactical challenges of day-to-day operations, the strategic shifts required for leadership, and the human elements of managing teams and missions on a tight budget. It’s not about theory, but applied wisdom. Each episode draws from Carmen and Kayla's direct experience building PMVPS and their work with various organizations, offering listeners a relatable and practical look at what it truly takes to make an impact. Tune in for a genuine resource that feels more like a conversation with seasoned colleagues than a lecture, perfect for anyone invested in the business of doing good.
