Speaker(s): Steve O'Connor, Advancement and Civic Engagement Consultant, Stephen O'Connor Consulting, Honorary Fellow, Leicester Institute for Advanced Studies, Margaret Clift, Head of Strategic Philanthropy, University of Glasgow, Fiona Ross, Director of Development, Giggleswick School, Liesl Elder, Chief Development Officer, University of Oxford
This session will explore how institutions and organisations can successfully foster a culture of ‘Principal Giving’ through an interactive presentation and delegate round table discussion. Faculty members will draw on their extensive experience in a range of settings and will explore what Principal Giving could mean for you and your team. We’ll look at how your organisation might define, identify and develop principal donors and partner with them to realise shared ambitions and transformational impact. We’ll also highlight key issues and operational tensions that may need to be navigated and discuss how you can develop your own professional competencies to play your role to the full.
