Intentional listening practices and communication are vital to implementing effective changes in your family philanthropy. During this session, we will be exploring the journey of listening to stakeholders and peers, building consensus internally, and tracking the effect and impact of these changes all while maintaining strong relationships and navigating family dynamics.
Join us to learn from family philanthropies, including the Seabury Foundation who will be describing recent changes they made to their governance and operations in their work to center the communities they serve.
We’ll be asking questions such as: Who was involved in the decision-making and what was that process like? How are changes being implemented and evaluated? And, perhaps most importantly, what are you learning along the way?
