Daring to Lead 2006 is a comprehensive national study of executive leadership at community-based nonprofits. Based on nearly 2,000 surveys from 8 metropolitan areas, the report provides current data on executive turnover, compensation, career plans, and retirement. It also explores leading causes of executive burnout---in particular, widespread frustration with boards of directors and funders. It identifies the skills that community-based executives most want and need to build along with the professional development strategies that they employ.

The report concludes with recommendations to executives, boards, funders, and capacity builders.
