WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING
Based in real world. Loved this! Really useful tools.
Loved the Wheel of Change. Sylia really showed us how to use this as a tool to better navigate the change management process.
Great session with wonderful tools. This info is critical to my success as an Executive Director and for the growth of the organization.
Dave Sternberg had a great sense of humor and ability to engage the audience. The big picture numbers about philanthropy were very helpful. Great practical handouts.
Very informative and gave step-by-step details on accomplishing the creation of a strong board.
Michael did best presentation on telling a story. So many try to help develop a pitch, but this really helped build that story in a hands-on way. So very helpful.
David Greco was fantastic. I am in NO WAY a numbers guy or spreadsheet interpreter - I actually "got it" from their user-friendly presentations!
Loved the engagement, energy and content. It was fun and powerful.
We have brought together a stellar team of presenters, trainers, coaches and facilitators together to create a unique and meaningful training experience.

Michael Kass, Founder, the Center for Story & SpiritOur Accelerator is an innovative, hands-on 2-day boot camp that will transform how senior leaders and board members work, and help them align their business models and fundraising strategies with their ability to deliver their mission and impact. The program is built around the belief that staff and board leaders aligned in common purpose can transform social sector organizations. Therefore, the workshop is designed so that the Executive Director and a Board member (preferable the Board Chair) would attend together.
We expect to see a wide range of benefits for participants. Specific learning objectives include:
Think Money First! is designed to incorporate multiple learning formats, allowing for greater interaction and feedback from participants and in-depth exploration of organizational challenges. All of our sessions are highly engaging and feature real world case studies and examples; hands-on, interactive exercises; group activities; and peer learning. In addition, participants are provided exercises, tools and resources they can take back to their organization.
We recognize that training is the first step to creating a culture of sustainability and impact, but leaders often need coaching and support around implementing change in their organizations. Following the training, we will survey the participants to identify areas where they would like additional support.
