Great prospect development professionals understand that their work thrives through strategic collaboration with the fundraisers they support. Emily Donohue has been fortunate to work with many phenomenal fundraisers in her nearly 20 years in prospect development. She has gathered three of the best she has worked with over her career to discuss how they do their work, highlights from their interactions with prospect development professionals over their careers, and insights into how they strategically incorporate the work of prospect management and research into cultivating and soliciting prospects.

Key Topics Include:

• How much research is essential before a prospect visit?
  
• What part of a portfolio review is most valuable for fundraisers?
  
• How do gift officers determine the right time for an ask, and how can prospect development support them in this decision?
  
• What support do new gift officers need from prospect development to hit the ground running?

• And much more!
