Partnership Course for Funders

This course is catered exclusively to funders and is designed to address their unique issues. As society’s challenges become more complex and interconnected, funders have increasingly sought to fund partnerships rather than single entity projects. The course explores the role donors can play in more effectively facilitating and supporting partnerships.  Contact us for more information


Inspirational Speaking

The founder of JS Daw & Associates, Jocelyne Daw, is available to speak at any function where the audience would benefit from hearing about the transformative power of partnerships. No longer just about achieving functional goals, organizations around the world are creating step-change advances in how they deal with community projects to make their world – locally and internationally – a better place. Speaking topics can be customized to meet the needs of your organization.  Contact us for more information.

Finally! A course that provides a proper framework and solid foundation for the work so many of us do on a day-to-day basis - build partnerships that matter and can lead to truly transformational change. Partnership Brokerage training encouraged me to be more intentional and focused about the relationships I’m exploring to form potential partnerships, and refreshingly confirmed that not every relationship has to be a partnership - and that’s okay. The training provided concrete tools for overcoming common partnering challenges; tools I’ve already started applying.
