Session 1: Anatomy of a Successful Donor Visit
We often think of a solicitation as a singular event, a meeting where we "ask for the order." In fact, it is more than just a transactional visit and when done right it should ensure success at every stage of the solicitation process. Strategic and generative conversations are at the heart of our work to transform lives and society. Questioning and listening are powerful life skills and will help you create productive donor relationships. Learn about the five stages of the solicitation process, how to develop questions instead of talking points that will inform your gift strategy, advance relationships, and result in a joyful, generous "Yes" to your request.
Colin Taylor, Chief Advancement Officer, University of South Australia

In this session, we will explore the ways in which governments and organisations might partner to inspire philanthropic investment.
