Insights to Drive Innovation and Impact

Episodes to date have explored how to evaluate and reimagine alumni engagement strategies, engage international alumni, motivate and empower alumni volunteers, create impactful mentoring programs, measure success, and more.

“Through exchanging knowledge and experiences with a diverse group of global experts, we can help advance and enhance the impact of our work. The series will also start to explore academic research in advancement. I am particularly excited about this because the majority of research stays in academia—practitioners don’t often get to know about the results and what they imply for the field.”

Sandra Rincon, author of Engaging Alumni as Strategic Partners and researcher on international alumni relations.

Over the past year, the company has collaborated with numerous thought leaders in the higher education industry to create useful and inspiring content for advancement professionals, including organizing a webinar with the University of Notre Dame on strategizing stewardship and donor engagement for fundraising success.

Hivebrite also recently expanded its partnership with the Council for Advancement and Support of Education to better serve alumni advancement professionals.

“We are delighted to sponsor this podcast series. It contains invaluable insights and helps spark discussions and ideas on new and improved engagement strategies.

The series also enables Hivebrite to stay on top of industry news and better understand the challenges of alumni advancement professionals, both of which are essential for innovating our platform to continually provide value to our customers.”
