Event Details

Featured Speaker: Angela K. Frusciante, PhD, Founder, Knowledge Designs to Change LLC

Attention to knowledge building is growing exponentially in the philanthropic sector.  More people are finding themselves with titles, roles, job responsibilities, and broader organizational and strategic goals that relate to “knowledge.” 

Titles like information technology, collaborative learning, equitable evaluation, change management and more are spreading throughout grantmaking.

In this session, we will come to a deeper understanding of the essence of knowledge work and explore:  

  • Why a focus on shared meaning making is key to success.
  • Knowledge building issues and questions that are most perplexing to our colleagues and clients.
  • Key entry points for supporting foundations in aligning knowledge work with equitable change strategy.

The session will include a brief background, pivotal concepts, current developments, and  participant conversation about examples and promising practices.
