This is To Be a Fundraiser; a series of articles and responses published weekly. Welcome!

Face-to-face fundraising is hard, but not in the way most people assume.

The skills can be learned, the techniques adopted. What’s difficult is the Inside part:

  • self-awareness

  • courage

  • humility

  • authority

  • change

I want you along on that journey! I’ve already asked other leaders in Philanthropy to respond and join in the conversation. Get in, fundraiser — we’re going deep. It will help your outcomes in work and in life.
