When you’re ready to lead your organization through a change in how you work (perhaps because you’ve adopted new technology or approaches), it’s important to note that change happens over time, and not all at once. As Ovid put it, “Dripping water hollows out stone, not through force but through persistence”.

On today’s podcast, I am excited to have Aaron Sanderson, SVP, Advancement & Chief Development Officer at Kids Help Phone about professional development and learning.

Grant writing is one of those things that collectively give our sector a headache!

When we write a grant, we don’t know what to focus on and struggle to fit everything under word count limit. When we submit, we have no idea whether it will be successful, and we just hope for the best. And when we get a rejection letter, we never find out why.

But grant writing doesn’t have to be that painful or mysterious. On today’s episode, I connected with Stachen Federick to learn about her insights on how to build communities through the process of grant writing and maximize our rate of success.
