board & Staff trainings

Katie delivers powerful, yet understandable, messages to support leadership within or on behalf of nonprofits, working with all levels of professionals. With this background, Katie is committed to fostering leadership for the boards of community nonprofits, which is in sync with corporate America as it seeks to give back to communities, empowering employees to be personally involved. Many businesses place this goal at the core of a company’s culture.

Guest speaking

Katie offers factual ideas and research-driven advice by presenting formulas that are understandable and actionable, so that nonprofit board members and other leaders can help nonprofits raise funds as a source of sustainable revenue. These skills are transferable to other areas, and attendees are bound to grow in professional, leadership, and community awareness as well.

Presentation topics

Katie’s presentations can be tailored for your needs and can include any or all of the following concepts:

  • How to make “the ask” to a prospective donor

  • Philanthropy tools for being a stronger external nonprofit leader, or board member serving the nonprofit

  • Your role in philanthropy as a board member or staff member

  • Build strength of corporate leaders through board leadership and involvement in the community 

  • Learn actions that lead to revenue—as a leader or any team across the organization

  • What is transferable from the corporate world to nonprofits—sales, customer service, client management/donor management, and more

  • “You have to have profits (revenue) or you can't be in business”

  • Raising money for nonprofits can be everyone’s role, even if your role will not make “the ask”

  • Board or staff readiness for philanthropy or a special initiative
