Abstract: Abstract This exploratory study assessed the leadership dispositions of nonprofit leaders, particularly those in executive director roles or higher. The Nonprofit Leadership Dispositions Survey was completed by 99 nonprofit leaders in private human services nonprofits in New York State. Descriptive analysis was used to understand the dominant dispositions. The results indicated that, apart from prudence, participant responses demonstrated evidence of the dispositions and strengths commonly associated with successful leadership. Recommendations for leadership training and development programs, as well as nonprofit organizations, are suggested.
