Running a successful fundraising campaign isn’t just about following best practices or implementing the latest consultant-driven strategies. It’s about leading with purpose, aligning your team, and forging strong partnerships across campus—all while navigating complex and ever-changing challenges.  

This two-day workshop is designed exclusively for senior fundraising leaders ready to move beyond conventional campaign playbooks. Here, the focus isn’t on crafting another set of strategic pillars—it’s about sharpening your leadership approach, strengthening team dynamics, and building the cross-campus support essential for long-term success.  

If you’re working toward unprecedented fundraising goals and finding that some strategies are clicking while others fall short, this is the space to explore why. Through candid discussions, expert facilitation, and peer collaboration, you’ll gain deeper insight into your campaign’s key challenges and leave equipped with practical solutions and a personalized roadmap for driving transformative results.  

Come prepared to challenge assumptions, rethink strategies, and redefine what’s possible for your campaign—and for your institution.
