AND ANOTHER THING…. Comprehensive development audit exposed success in mega gifts and annual giving…but weakness in $1m gifts Planning for campaign with an unprecedented goal Resulting recognition of need to fundamentally restructure our approach to major gift pipelining

VERSION 1.0: REGIONAL ADVANCEMENT TEAM

A CALL TO ACTION
10
THE LAUNCH OF THE REGIONAL DEVELOPMENT TEAM And so... we launched “Regional Development 2.0” with a refocused three-part mission: 1.Identify and qualify new major gift prospects for the current campaign, and beyond. 2.Provide strategic assistance to units with university-wide development priorities. 3.Establish a talent pipeline to produce future development professionals across the University.
11
QUALIFYING MAJOR GIFT PROSPECTS 1.Heavy emphasis on ‘fast-tracking’ major gift qualification Focus on ~5,300 “High-Value Unassigned” (HVU) prospects $1M+ household net worth, MGI 95+ AND unassigned to development officer No personal communication with IU in past two years Each responsible for qualifying 100 HVU donors this CY (=1,200 total) Using targeted campaign engagement survey and gift range chart Placing equal value on ‘disqualification’ and ‘qualification’ 2.Well House Society (unrestricted gifts) as intentional tool
12
COLLABORATION WITH UNITS 1. As central development staff, collaboration is KEY to success Importance of proactive communication and relationship building Ongoing information sharing and regular in-person meetings 2. Promoting a service model: “We’re here to help!” Sharing quarterly travel schedules Formal strategic partnerships, serving as extension of unit team Partnership intake form to set expectations and determine unique goals 3. Incentivizing ‘hand-off’ of qualified major gift prospects to MGO Process looks different for each individual donor
13
CREATING A TALENT PIPELINE Significant reorganization of team’s structure in order to: 1.retain talent within IU system 2.recognize and incentivize high-achieving performers 3.enhance quality of management and, therefore, development activity Former structure:
