Add new tools to your fundraising toolbelt by learning some tricks, techniques, and truths from the world of improvisation. In meetings with our donors and funders we need to be active listeners who are agile and able to turn on a dime as needs change or when the meeting starts to go in a direction we didn’t anticipate. Take home warm up activities that will get you and your team in the collaborative mind set for a meeting. Learn how to better “be in the moment” and keep your cool, even when you’re sweating on the inside. Part of this presentation will be interactive and “on your feet” so come ready to move, interact, and have fun playing games that will change the way you approach your work.
