The dean’s primary role in fundraising is not exclusively to ask for money but to create the conditions that attract significant philanthropic investments.
Read this bestselling guide for a forward-thinking look at:
- How the dean can take a lead role in defining the case for support and identifying inspiring projects defined by specific
objectives rather than by categories of need. - The respective roles and responsibilities of the dean, the faculty, and the college development staff.
- How deans can work most effectively with the president, the central advancement office, and their development officer.
- The dean’s specific role in donor stewardship, campaigns, piloting new models for fundraising, volunteer management, and asking.
Bonus Resource
This book also includes a practical guide for deans on hiring the right development officer.
