Chatting it up has a whole new meaning when we consider how we build relationships, get to know our audiences, and learn from our stakeholders, especially as we navigate challenges with remote work. Through skill building, we will help soothe your anxieties on getting tongue-tied and offer new perspectives on the value of conversation for making your audiences (including donors and volunteers) feel heard and appreciated.

Aly Sterling will lead the workshop. Aly is founder and president of Aly Sterling Philanthropy, a partnership-driven consulting firm powering fundraising, strategic planning, and board leadership solutions for nonprofits.

Workshop Takeaways:

• Improve your ability to network and develop relationships
  
• Learn about strategic conversations and conversation starters for donor stewardship and cultivation
• Calm your worries about “the right things to say”
