In this session we will describe Northwestern Memorial Foundation's approach to optimizing their staffing model and relationship management coverage using a data driven methodology. In partnership with BWF, we evaluated pipeline flow, volume by medical department, and screened patient capacity, assessing estimated prospect and donor conversion rates from this population. NMF implemented the results of the analysis by realigning overall fundraising staff assignment of medical departments and physicians for more equitable and balanced pipeline coverage. In this presentation, we will also discuss the team building, communication, and change management necessary to successfully implement the assignment changes.
