In this all-faculty panel discussion, we will have the opportunity to hear from our faculty about their professional journey, how they decided what type of institute they wanted to serve in, when they knew to make a move, how they determined if they wanted to pursue more of a management or pure fundraising track, and perhaps most importantly, how they cultivated the crucial characteristic of self-awareness.

Storytelling, and Case studies are wonderful ways to envision strategies at work. This session provides cradle to grave case studies of real gifts and real donor relationships. We explore these relationships and gifts by segmenting them into age and wealth and discuss their giving, both current and deferred using strategies that we learned in the conference.
