And a few leadership mindsets can put you in the right position. Such as prioritization, experimentation, and perseverance.

Heads up 📣
This is the last week of this daily newsletter format.
As I’ve been telling you:
I’m changing the name of this newsletter soon (goodbye, Brand First!) — to correspond with the title of my upcoming book. Same content and focus for you, new name for me.
And since 72% of you voted for a weekly newsletter, you’ll start getting a weekly roundup email soon.
The daily bonus
This awesome illustrator, Janis Ozolins, has an online course called Explain Ideas Visually. I’m not affiliated in any way and I never charge (like sponsored newsletters do) for recommending other resources. I just think more nonprofit leaders could benefit from visual storytelling, in order to communicate complex ideas.
Kevin, all your materials are brilliant! I thought I knew my subject until I encountered you. I have been in the fundraising and philanthropy for 24 years. I was the Ex Director of the largest Christian foundation in Africa. I learnt so much there. For the last 7 years I am in the Generosity space, helping individuals (all ages), churches, and organizations discover the joy of giving. You inspire me!
