Thank you. As a new director of development, I am learning “best practices” and your videos are extremely helpful. I appreciate your time, effort and expertise. I eagerly await the next video. Thank you again. All my best, Pam

Tom’s method of presentation is perfect. He is able to cover the topics he discusses in so few words, unlike most presentations today, and still gives the absolute most important lessons I need. I’m very, very impressed with him!!

I founded an international NGO 6 years ago at the same time that I started doctoral studies. Our biggest struggle has been having the staff time to develop a convincing case for support while also growing the organization. Early in our development support came from friends and family. In the early stages, it is more challenging to state a case for support because our modus operandi is still evolving. In many ways its like asking for venture capital; take a risk by investing in us. I’d be interested in understanding how to negotiate fundraising in the early years of NGO development.
