Fundraising coaching helps you do your job even better.
Coaching helps fundraisers who are:
struggling with aspects of their role or not producing results quickly enough
keen to unlock and maximise even more potential within their role
the most senior fundraiser in their organisation and want the input of another expert, who knows what’s working across the sector
Training is learning something brand new OR adding bells and whistles to something you can already do.
Coaching is optimising what you are already doing: unpacking what you do and putting it back together smarter.
Unlike training, coaching is:
shaped by the team manager – the commissioning manager sets agreed measurable objectives
delivered at the organisation, focused on the substance of their work
not time off from work, but time spent on improving effectiveness and success at work
one-to-one and tailored to each individual.
Coaching will:
pivot team members to focus on fundraising activity that has better return
set clear agreed targets of activity as well as income
inject new ideas, skills and techniques to unlock success
drive momentum
and, ultimately, bring in more donations to your charity!
I coach clients in the following areas:
Excelling in your role: working 1:1 with fundraisers (from junior to director level) to hone skills and focus on best-return activity
Optimising your income: find untapped areas where you can raise more funds; using your organisation’s strengths to secure steady income
Strategy: a clear route to raise your income target
Training others: creating a ‘fundraising organisation’ - volunteers and staff get the skills and confidence to support your fundraising
