The Helen Brown Group and iWave are happy to present this webinar to you. Ethics and due diligence are more important than ever in prospect research. The Sackler and Epstein scandals of the past few years are bringing ethics and risk management to the forefront. As donors and their gifts come from an ever-wider net, how is your team (and their leadership) keeping potential risks in mind? We will discuss potential pitfalls of due diligence, how to adhere to APRA’s Code of Ethics (no matter how small or large your shop is) and what to do if you come across some risky business (including examples in our own work). We will clarify the key differences between prospect research and due diligence research and give some tips and tricks to go about it in an efficient and ethical way.
After our discussion, attendees should feel empowered to draft a due diligence policy for their organization (or to encourage other to do so), and have greater knowledge of the best resources to complete this work. They will also have a greater understand of the differences between prospect research and due diligence research. The ethics needed and risks involved with completing due diligence work will also be discussed.
This webinar is worth (1) CFRE point.
