  Refocus, Realign, Refresh: Clarifying Prospect Development’s Scope

  As prospect development teams take on more and more, it becomes easy to lose sight of what we really exist to do—and hard to say no to the work that doesn’t quite fit. In this session, we’ll explore practical ways to define your purpose, clarify your scope, refine your activities, and reset expectations with your partners. Bring your questions and thoughts for the second half of the session, which will feature an interactive discussion on applying the frameworks from the first half. You’ll come away with fresh ideas, useful tools, and plenty to bring back to your team.

  Speaker: Catherine Flaaten, associate vice president of prospect development, BWF

  Free for current OPRN members. $5 for nonmembers.

  Grab your lunch and join us for an hour to have a conversation about the book, 

  Focused Fundraising: How to Raise Your Sights and Overcome Overload. 

  "In Focused Fundraising: How to Raise Your Sights and Overcome Overload, accomplished nonprofit management strategists and leaders Christopher Cannon and Michael Felberbaum deliver a must-read combination of the latest mindfulness techniques and operational strategies that will equip you to succeed in an increasingly chaotic, noisy, and confusing fundraising environment. You’ll find concrete strategies to navigate the challenges of modern fundraising, including technology changes, scarce resources, and shifting donor expectations."
  

  As always, our book club is open to all! It is a great way to meet other prospect development professionals. This is a lunch time book club so we understand if you want to eat and are off camera for all or some the chat!

  
  

  This book is available as an ebook from Candid.
