Influencing Decision Makers for Nonprofit Leaders with Kathy Patrick
About this episode
Welcome to the Nonprofit Mission Impact Podcast. This week we're talking to Kathy Patrick.
We talked about:
- what it takes to influence decision-makers.
- the concrete steps leaders can take to create a plan, identify who is key to your organization and how to start building a relationship with them before you need their help.
- Why it is so important to remember that key decision-makers are human first and not fixate on their title and role.
