Executive Leadership Cohort
The Executive Leadership Cohort will take place on Aug. 19 in Baltimore.
The Executive Leadership Cohort (ELC) is intended for those individuals who are senior leaders in prospect development and who set new directions while motivating and inspiring their teams and colleagues. Specifically, ELC targets individuals who actively impart knowledge and externally advocate for the industry, have been working in the fundraising field for 10 years or more, or have risen into leadership roles in development.
This targeted group will meet during Prospect Development 2025, participating in a set of discussions that will focus on the issues that prospect development and philanthropy face today, as well as the challenges that leaders deal with in their organizations in addition to their own careers. The program will be highly interactive, providing attendees with content, networking and peer-to-peer learning that will enable them to better understand the value of leadership, and will include a set of open conversations facilitated by Apra members and career professionals. Discussions will be attendee-driven, framed within the context of strategic leadership and an understanding of the responsibilities of a leader.
Attendees of ELC will be invited to join the online community of past ELC participants to encourage year-round connections and conversation
