We often hear the phrase “culture is king” but many organizations don’t know how to curate a positive culture. Join members of the Children’s Museum of Richmond to hear how they turned around the organization’s employee experience—reducing turnover and increasing employee engagement. The Executive Director and Director of Human Resources will share the museum’s culture journey from 2019 to today. They will share innovative employee programs that have helped solidify a culture of learning and play and share evaluation methods and tactics your team can use. Register here.

Attend this webinar for a discussion of fundraising for general funds and operating expenses. We all know how to get money to buy things, and capital campaign advice abounds, but what about payroll and toilet paper? We will talk about how to incorporate operating funds into grant requests and budgets, how to have the big and sometimes uncomfortable conversations with repeat donors and sponsors to grow relationships, and how to make the big asks. The combined knowledge of pitching, applying for grants, growing donor relationships, and finding creative ways to fund the “lowest-hanging fruit” will leave you with a toolkit of fund development tricks to return to your museum. Register here.
