Have you ever heard the saying “Your vibe attracts your tribe?”Have you ever noticed how people who typically see their glass half-empty seem to consistently have bad stuff happen to them? They are the ones who get a flat tire, are constantly sick and, once again, are ticketed by the parking attendant. You catch my drift?

What would you say if asked, “So, tell me about yourself?” It’s certainly an open-ended question and one that could help or hurt you when trying to impress your potential next supervisor or board of directors.

I have the pleasure have helping board members, staff leaders, and campaign volunteers hone their fundraising skills on a regular basis. Recently, I was reminded by a volunteer of one of the most important lessons: We have two ears and one mouth.

A solid resource development program has many components, including a development plan that outlines goals, strategies to achieve them, and tactics, methods, metrics, and accountabilities to operationalize the strategies. Generally, the development plan identifies campaigns, fundraising events, grant possibilities, and approaches to access other funding sources.
Whether you’re ready to expand your organizational capacity and move forward with purpose, or just want to talk shop, we’d love to connect.
