On 14 and 21 October 2011 we will be hosting our inaugural Not-For-Profit (NFP) Organisation Briefings. This is a great opportunity for NFP CEO's and Board Directors to learn about:

  • How we advise clients on selecting NFP partners and the methodologies we use
  • Candid feedback from our clients about what makes a NFP stand out
  • Emerging trends from the donor and corporate community investment perspective that NFP's need to consider

There are four separate briefing times and ten places per briefing. The two-hour briefing includes a substantial question and answer period. Please note: Briefings are for NFP CEO's and Board Directors only.

Event dates for Brisbane and Sydney will be annouced shortly.
