Curious if you are willing to share, what were the most valuable experiences you got out of these 1:1s? (Or maybe: what were the most valuable 1:1s you ended up having, and why were they valuable?) :)
Thank you for the talk you gave at 2022’s San Francisco EAG! It was so helpful!!
what were the most valuable 1:1s you ended up having, and why were they valuable?
Most 1:1s were very valuable because right from the beginning of the conversation, I invited feedback and asked for potential failure modes they can think of as we continued the conversation—doing this repeatedly with multiple people really helped clarify some of the blind spots we had
One of the most valuable 1:1 was with a senior EA who had been where I was before, and he had experiences writing proposals for funding. Because he knew the exact steps, he knew what I needed at the current stage of our nonprofit startup and listed them step by step for our scenario. Super insightful conversation and very actionable
Another amazing 1:1 was an expert who has a ton of experience with 501(c)3 and 501(c)4. He was able to clarify all the questions we had surrounding the topic, in regards to what we were trying to do with our startup. He even offered a line of communication for further questions for things that might come up as we implement his recommendations!
I’m glad you had a productive EAG!
