Awareness, Authenticity, Authority

Abstract

This presentation covers a wide range of topics relevant to making pitches to prospective donors to academia. I elaborate on effective presentations and pitches: embracing your prospect’s needs, gaining trust, being authentic, managing subtext, being cognizant of ethics, recognizing fear, admitting setbacks, navigating pitfalls, enhancing authority and engagement, and more.
