Masterclass with Lynne Wester—Donor Relations guru

It’s not often that you get the opportunity to hear from a speaker of the calibre of Lynne Wester.

At last year’s international conference in New Zealand there were nearly 100 speakers, and our survey feedback showed that Lynne Wester was the overwhelmingly most popular speaker.

We acknowledge the leadership of Educate Plus in recognising the quality of the offering from Lynne and bringing her all the way from the USA to conduct a Masterclass series in communications, throughout Australia and in New Zealand.

As a Donor Relations and Stewardship expert, Lynne’s messages were powerful yet simply delivered. Building on her presentation last year about the ‘Four Pillars of Donor Relations’ Lynne took this to the next level and gave us a whole new perspective regarding ‘The Keys to Amazing Communications’.

Attending the session were advanced practitioners from schools and universities, as well as the Chairs of a number of Foundations from schools in Sydney and rural NSW.

Despite the level of experience in the room, all agreed that the messages and key nuggets of information from Lynne’s presentation were invaluable. Some attendees said:

• ‘It was life-changing’.
• ‘Wow! I really thought I knew most of what there is to know, but I picked up some great tips from Lynne’s presentation.’
• ‘It’s going to change the way I do things when I get back to the office.’

Thank you to the leadership of Educate Plus for having the insight to bring such a powerful speaker to our shores.
