About this Event

January Connect & Caffeinate – Niagara Fundraisers Network & AFP Golden Horseshoe!

Join members of the Niagara Fundraisers Network for a casual morning of conversation and idea-sharing focused on Insights from the Front Lines: Employer Expectations meet Candidate Aspirations led by Ellsie Rusonik and Jill Anderson from KCI’s Search + Talent.

Great teams don’t just happen, they are built with intention. In this session Ellie and Jill will explore strategies that make an organization a place where people want to work and where they choose to stay. Drawing from years of executive search experience, they will share insights that help create workplaces that attract top talent in a competitive market and build loyalty, growth and satisfaction among existing staff. They will discuss how leaders and staff can work together to create meaningful career paths and supportive teams while strengthening team connection and building opportunities for personal growth.

Drawing on real examples from recent placements as well as sector data, they will highlight the qualities employers are seeking in new hires and what attracts professionals to new roles. In this session you will gain practical strategies to hire effectively, retain top performers, and succeed in fundraising roles, whether you’re shaping a team or shaping your own career.

Pour a coffee, and bring your curiosity and let’s learn from each other and strengthen Niagara’s fundraising community.

Spots are limited, so register today and come raise a mug with us!
