e-Thought Leadership on Fundraising & Philanthropy

As an associate with Jeffrey Byrne & Associates, Inc. we are asked to “live our mission” by actively engaging as volunteers with the nonprofits whose missions match our personal passions. I have chosen to support three organizations, one of which is the Kansas Women’s Business Center. Earlier this month, I reconnected with the Executive Director at the Kauffmann Center during the GivingUSA presentation. We agreed to get together in September. Following our meeting, I found she had a profile on LinkedIn. I requested that she join my network, and now we can keep up-to-date before our September meeting. I have found this professional networking site to serve not only as a personal avenue for finding former friends and colleagues, but as an excellent way to expand my professional networking and information gathering. Have you joined LinkedIn? What are your experiences? If you are looking to make more of your LinkedIn profile, check out this site: “33 Ways to use LinkedIn for Business.”
