Connection is the currency of the attention economy. With fewer American household’s giving to charitable organizations annually, coupled with an increased demand for philanthropic dollars, the modern nonprofit dig-deep to understand the forces at play, and learn how to win the competition for connection.

This keynote highlights the changing definition of generosity, shedding light on the unprecedented competition for connection facing modern nonprofit organizations. To this end, nonprofits must develop a renewed appreciation for radical connection and learn to leverage technology once only used by for-profit organizations. Using current data and analysis, attendees will learn the importance of measuring and prioritizing connection as well as which technologies can help them to work smarter, not harder.
