The Generosity Crisis and Unleashing Radical Connection
Today's conversation covers everything from The Generosity Crisis to unleashing radical connection, moving from heart to wallet, and how artificial intelligence is transforming the nonprofit world.
Join Dave and Carly as they welcome guest Nathan Chappell, the co-author of the award-winning book The Generosity Crisis: The Case for Radical Connection to Solve Humanity’s Greatest Challenges. With over two decades of nonprofit leadership experience, Nathan is on a mission to reignite generosity and transform the future of fundraising through responsible AI.
The group discusses the evolving playbook of philanthropy and the intersection of the heart, wallet, and radical connection in both nonprofit and for-profit organizations. The non-profit sector led the charge for decades, starting with the heart. Today, many for-profit organizations, from Tesla to Patagonia, have perfected the playbook of connecting the heart and the wallet.
Today's topics:
The Generosity Crisis and trends in declining giving from individuals.
Implications on for-profit and non-profit sectors, and illustrating the concept of radical connection.
Ways to build connections between non-profit causes, communities, and for-profit brands.
The impact of radical connection and the role that AI plays.
We hope you enjoy our conversation with Nathan Chappell!
