Mike Geiger, President and CEO of the Association of Fundraising Professionals, joins us from AFP’s Global Headquarters in Virginia.

One of Mike’s goals for AFP is to focus on issues beyond fundraising training and education, addressing topics such as diversity and inclusion, gender inequity and building cultures of philanthropy that affect our work every day. In particular, he will be discussing the work of AFP’s Women’s Impact Initiative and sharing the results of the first-ever comprehensive survey about sexual harassment in the fundraising profession, along with other research and initiatives. Mike will also be talking about the state of the fundraising profession and what’s ahead for the fundraising community in 2019.

Some of the issues he’ll be exploring include:

  • Demographics: What is the makeup of women in the profession, and what do we know about them?
  • Gender Equity: How do we close the gender gap in fundraising, tackle implicit bias, and develop leadership skills to move women into leadership positions—as fundraisers and donors?
  • Barriers to Leadership: How do we understand and overcome additional obstacles women face on the road to leadership?
  • Collaborating with leaders in other sectors to help fuel and support this initiative, as well as create a more inclusive culture of philanthropy.
  • Sexual Harassment: AFP initiatives to spot harassment, provide advice for taking action, create best practice standards for organizations, etc
