THE COLLABORATIVE APPROACH TO PHILANTHROPIC IMPACT AND STORYTELLING 

WITH DAN SCHOENFELD, DIRECTOR OF GRANTS AND IMPACT ADMINISTRATION, KNIGHT FOUNDATION


Foundations are under increasing pressure to become more data-driven and to adopt quantitative metrics that effectively assess the impact of their work, but traditional approaches aren't always effective. 

Fortunately, leaders across the philanthropic sector are working to change this paradigm.

  2. What this new, ‘collaborative’ approach to impact measurement could look like for the sector
