Apra Talks has been one of the most versatile sessions at the conference. Over the years, it has been delivered as TED-style talks, friendly debates and short presentations on important and timely topics. No matter the format, Apra Talks has always been about connecting with and learning from perspectives within our prospect development community. This year, we're highlighting three prospect development professionals to discover how they got where they are and where they see the profession going in the future. You'll hear their unique career journeys and ways they have advocated for themselves along the way. Our work in prospect development occurs within larger social and organizational paradigms, and we've experienced fundamental shifts over the past two years. Our speakers this year will share their insights into how they, and their organizations, are thinking and working differently as a result. We hope this session will spark questions, conversations and ideas that can be shared at the conference and beyond. Regardless of what your career aspirations are, this interactive panel will provide you with tactical ideas for how you can get there.

In August 2022, on the heels of our biggest fundraising year in history, Davidson College not only officially graduated our most famous alum, NBA MVP Stephen Curry (!), but also ushered in a new president. As the director of our research and prospect management office, I will share our strategy and specific preparations leading up to and during this transitional year, which we approached as an opportunity to innovate. Collaborating closely with advancement colleagues, our two-person research team: - finalized and socialized a new rating system, moving from dated campaign ratings to ICE ratings (Inclination, Capacity, Engagement); - streamlined and improved the principal prospect profile and briefing process, prepping our new president for 150+ prospect meetings his first six months on the job; - launched a new Constituent Bio Summary report highlighting top prospects and influencers for leadership at events, pulling in updated ratings, photos and brief internal bios; and - updated our analytics and incorporated them into our CRM to prep for pipeline building. I will share specific examples of our efforts above and share tips on how to innovate and manage through change while strategically providing maximum value to new leadership.

1. Begin with portfolios and metrics. a. Know what each portfolio can produce and are the gift officers goals aligned with their portfolio? Do we have a process for why a donor is actively managed? b. Will the portfolios produce what is needed to fund your initiatives this year? If not, they may need to be rebalanced. 2. Does your fundraising team understand our initiatives? a. Have you created a communications calendar so they know when their donors are going to receive mailings, solicitations, etc. so they personalize communications to their donors? 3. What is the fundraising pipeline expected to produce this year? a. Create metrics and have a strategy for your portfolios. b. Who in your portfolio is going to be solicited this year for more than an AF gift? Have a plan to help each member so your team will be successful. This doesn't have to be hard or complicated. Build a foundation for success. The target audiences are small shops or even large shops that are trying to help their fundraising team achieve greater success. A gift officer, major gifts officer, prospect management, and communications are all target audiences. Fundraisers tend to be on an island alone, but every gift is a result of work that the entire development team has done. The goal for the presentation is strategy. How do we all work collectively and collaboratively to meet our goals? I cover gift officers, communications, and prospect research.

As an autistic and legally blind person Mickey Rowe believes that when we design for accessibility, we help everyone perform at their best, not just people with disabilities. Mickey has had to advocate for himself his whole life, yet becoming better at advocating for oneself and one's company is a skill we all would benefit from. When we embrace all our differences and value the things that make our colleagues' lived experiences different from our own, we are better able to collaborate with each other, embracing all of our different strengths. In this keynote, Mickey shares his own lived experience before emboldening participants to value their own differences and the differences of their colleagues and daring guests to advocate for themselves and others so they can truly perform at their best.

In this presentation, we will share our methodology for relationship mapping profiles and highlight our relationship mapping work with a private liberal arts college as they undertake an ambitious fundraising initiative for which they will need to engage new prospects who are outside their natural constituent base.

The classic gift cycle may be best practice when it comes to fundraising and tracking proposals, but is it the best way to categorize assigned prospects? The Prospect Development team at Temple University didn't think so. Simple engagement measures are the foundation of a suite of tools that allow the team to identify priorities and opportunities. These measures have changed Temple University's understanding of prospects, portfolios, and even fundraising potential.
