$30.00 - General Admission

Today's Chief Development Officer must bring much more to the table than a talent for frontline fundraising. In a joint session for members of WOC and Allies in Action, a panel of women of color who hold the CDO title will discuss their road to the top leadership seat. The panel will discuss the competencies that distinguish today's successful leader, how to prepare to take on the role of CDO, and what Board members and colleagues can do to support CDOs in their role. The discussion will draw on insights collected from more than 100 interviews with CDOs across the country compiled in the newly released second edition of The Chief Development Officer: Beyond Fundraising, by Ron Schiller.
