On this episode of the podcast, I talk with Dale Wright, Associate Dean of Advancement in the Grainger College of Engineering at the University of Illinois. Our trend lines include:
- the transition from alumni relations to development and the tough decision to leave your alma mater;
- preparing young professionals for a career in advancement;
- helping Deans and academic leaders build their fundraising acumen; and
- the ongoing social justice movement and push for equity in higher education.
