Conflict Resolution.
“When I transitioned from running a non-profit organization to leading a lean philanthropy, I wanted to learn as much as I could about my new field. A colleague and mentor recommended reading, The Practice of Philanthropy, and it started to click. Malcolm has the unique skill of taking complex ideas or philosophies and breaking them down into practical directives. Then I had the chance to work with Malcolm one-on-one, which allowed me to really appreciate his philanthropy expertise and his talent as a teacher.”
