What worked for you and your team this year? What did not work?
Often, missteps and failures are perceived as just that: failures. With this mindset, fundraisers miss out on the opportunity to uncover critical lessons and develop new best practices from which their organizations can benefit.
It is time to shift the narrative! This seminar will help you reframe “failures” as a hidden asset for your fundraising toolkit. We will reflect on fundraising missteps, exploring how to dissect past mistakes and created new opportunities for your organization.
Learn how you can recover from your own “epic fails,” build your fundraising skill sets, and help your organization’s achieve ultimate fundraising success.
Key Takeaways
> Reframe “epic fails” as hidden assets.
> Explore common “epic fails” and their key contributors, and how to anticipate them.
> Develop tools that will help you recover from past missteps and strengthen your fundraising practice.
