About Lourdes J. Rodríguez
My leadership style is relational and catalytic, in part, because I recognize the deep truth in that saying: many hands make light work. What makes me an innovator, though, is not that I have all the answers, but rather that I know how to bring together people who have pieces of a solution – and how to facilitate the discovery of how each piece fits. I strive to be global minded without missing the importance of local context and relevance. I inspire people because I found my inspiration in leaders that came before me and laid the path for entering spaces of power and privilege with humility. One of my superpowers is being a non-native English speaker. I am constantly listening to others and thinking about how to best communicate ideas. That is why I often notice nuances in how people speak about what matters to them that others miss. I have expertise in • Philanthropic innovation • Community driven public health • Partnership development • Community engagement • Team building
