    Fundraising Is An Inside Job, with Haley Cooper

    Fundraising Is An Inside Job, with Haley Cooper

    Haley Cooper is The Savvy Fundraiser, a nonprofit consultant and coach. We make a slightly different and deeper exploration into fundraising, emotional connections, and empathy:


    Why fundraising is an inside job and what it means to do your own inner work so you can manage in, up and out.
    The significance of emotional connection in the nonprofit workplace and how it can facilitate more creativity and collaboration when it comes to raising more revenue.
    The correlation between a culture of trust and enhanced emotional connections within the nonprofit team. How can leaders create an environment where vulnerability is embraced, and mistakes are seen as opportunities for growth?
    Share practical strategies for incorporating empathy into conversations, such as active listening, recognizing individual contributions, and acknowledging personal growth.
