AFP Webinar: Equip Your Board To Be Effective, Fluent Brand Ambassadors

1:00 - 2:00 PM Eastern | Presenters: Meg Tripp and Roger Sametz
Eligible for 1 CFRE Education Point

Your board contributes their time, treasure, and expertise to support your mission and vision—and they are charged to be ambassadors for your organization. But they may not have the knowledge and comfort to tell your story to prospective donors and partners who may not know who you are, what you do, and why you’re worthy of support. This session will map out a process to engage, inform, equip, and support your board in becoming confident, compelling brand ambassadors—from collaboration around message development to role-playing workshops—so they have the tools and training they need to succeed.
