Foundations encourage partnerships among grantees, but great partnerships also take place among consultants to foundations. In this webinar, you’ll explore the realm of consultant partnerships, discover the forms those philanthropy-consulting partnerships take, and learn about their benefits and inherent challenges.

This webinar will help you understand how to be more explicit about the value of fostering a learning culture in your foundation within the context of any consulting engagement, & will enable both you and your consultant partners to more proactively strive for & achieve learning.
