Josh Thomas is a Fractional Executive Director at Del Valle ISD Education Foundation. He possess expertise in religion, nonprofits, theology, peacebuilding, community outreach and 29 more skills. Colleagues describe him as "I've worked to help elect Presidents and Senators. I've advised some of the world's most influential philanthropists. I've helped the largest global corporations and brands become even larger. I've worked with some of the best and brightest and count Josh as one of the most influential mentors I've ever had. His ability to see and elevate people's strengths is unique and core to his DNA. He can see both what's in front of him and what's beyond the horizon. Josh has that knack for elevating people to exceed within the systems they're in while providing the encouragement and guidance to adapt or generate new systems. And somehow, he's able to do all of this with grace, humility, respect, and patience. I fully recommend working with Josh in anyway you can." and "I've had the privilege of working alongside Josh as he led and grew multiple organizations in the most challenging possible environment -- the Israeli-Palestinian conflict -- and also stepped up to be a leader among leaders, serving for several years as the chair of the Alliance for Middle East Peace (ALLMEP), an organization I founded. Managing and growing ever-larger organizations focused on peacebuilding during times of active conflict takes a rare leader and executive. We all frequently relied on Josh for his wise counsel, his solid analysis and strategic thinking, and his steady hand. He helped steer not only his own organizations but also our umbrella network and entire field with his vision and values-based leadership. He was tireless in advancing our goals and often helped us re-set our course to detour around the next obstacle. And he does it all with an understanding nod and a reassuring smile. It's not a surprise that many who start as colleagues come to call him a good friend. It's exciting to see that he's now offering his talents to others, who can now benefit from all of his skills and experience."
