[PRE-WORKSHOP 1] Making Voices Heard: Capturing and Amplifying Constituent Perspectives Through Qualitative Methods

This session will introduce participants to qualitative methods for capturing, analyzing, and amplifying constituent perspectives. Qualitative methods will be framed as a complement to quantitative methods, and emphasis will be placed on the benefits of combining both approaches for a more complete picture of an organization’s constituents (i.e., “1+1=3”). Qualitative methods will be highlighted not only as a way of exploring and better understanding our community’s evolving needs, but also as a vehicle for constituent empowerment. During the session, participants will become familiar with several qualitative methods—including thematic analysis, audio recording, and PhotoVoice—through a combination of examples, demonstrations, and hands-on activities. The importance of sharing back results from qualitative methods will also be underscored.

[PRE-WORKSHOP 2] Understanding and Working with Next Generation Donors

Join Sharna Goldseker of the New York based nonprofit, 21/64 in this interactive deep dive workshop to understand the values and giving strategies of next generation donors and the implications for nonprofits going forward.

It is projected that the next generation of major donors are set to inherit $59 trillion within the next 50 years. Alongside the historic expansion in philanthropic assets is a simultaneous expansion in philanthropic innovation and entrepreneurial impact. Considering how much of our future is in the hands of this rising generation, it is crucial to understand who they are, how they think and what new attitudes and behaviors they bring to big philanthropy. 21/64 has become this area’s leading expert through exclusive research and field work, which led to the publication of the critically acclaimed 2013 #NextGenDonors report and coauthored new book, Generation Impact: How Next Gen Donors Are Revolutionizing Giving published by Wiley in October 2017. Learn how next gen donors are different from their parents and grandparents and how to successfully engage this generation in your nonprofits, family philanthropy and other organizations and family enterprises.
