Coaching

We take a personalized approach to coaching.

We begin with a no fee, one-hour consultation to identify your goals and aspirations and to determine whether coaching is right for you.

If you become a coaching participant, you will complete a short form to provide information about:

  • Your background, experience, and goals
  • Potential pluses and possible impediments to achieving your goal
  • Timeline for Achieving Your Goals

You will then receive a personalized Development Plan that might include:

  • Readings from fundraising and leadership literature
  • Engaging in exercises to learn or model skills, such as asking for gifts
  • Interviewing other professionals then discussing what you learned from those conversations

Client Stories:

Several years ago I engaged Sophie to serve as my fundraising coach. We first had an in-depth conversation during which we identified my goals and gaps in my knowledge base. Sophie developed a several step plan then provided me with informative readings and instructive exercises which we discussed in one-on-one meetings. The experienced broadened and deepened my knowledge about fundraising and better equipped me to cultivate key prospects. I highly recommend Sophie as a fundraising coach.”

Mary Ritter Beard
"I have often spoken about the importance of intentionality in philanthropy: that it has to stir the soul. This is true whether you are feeding the homeless, mentoring a child or working on climate change."

Charles Bronfman
"There is no passion to be found playing small - in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living."

Nelson Mandela
“I don’t wish to be successful but I definitely wish to be successful in helping someone, sometime for something good.”
