This episode of The Rainmaker Fundraising Podcast is a little different, but no less insightful (I hope!).
Instead of interviewing another leader in the nonprofit sector, I invited my friend Julie Ordonez from The Nonprofit Courage Lab to interview ME and talk with me about my recent move to DickersonBakker.
Since I announced my career move just a few days ago the response has been overwhelmingly positive – thank you all who have reached out to congratulate, etc.!
A few people have also asked, “WHY would you make a move like this? What’s behind this?”
Those are fair questions, and I wanted to take a few minutes to answer them.
The bottom line for me in this is simple:
- We need strong leadership in the nonprofit sector, and I have a vision for growing and developing those leaders
- Philanthropy is at a crossroads, and if organizations want to continue raising significant dollars to fund mission, they need to think and act differently
- I’m passionate about finding ways to serve and appreciate ALL donors the same way that you typically treat only your top 50-100 donors, because generosity isn’t just about the number of zeros on a check
If you want to raise more money for your cause and make a bigger impact in the world, I’d love to talk with you. Reach out to me on LinkedIn to connect. I’d love to brainstorm how you can increase your impact.
