From our colleagues at Minnesota Council on Foundations, here are two audio interviews with corporate philanthropy experts on how they continue to improve their work.
- Fast Forward with Carolyn Link Blue Cross and Blue Shield executive director Carolyn Link talks about changes to the grant application process and how it can alter who you’re welcoming in and how funder/ grantee collaborations are perceived
- Fast Forward with Susan Voigt As someone who switched from the grantee side of using evaluation and is now on the funder side, Medica Foundation program manager Susan Voigt has real insights about how evaluation tools can and should be used as tools for learning as well as accountability. She also talks about common shared metrics as a big picture idea and explains the idea of ‘field of practice’ evaluation
