Such a privilege to sit, learn, and share about place-based philanthropy with my long-time mentor, Garland Yates, and my co-conspirators, Fred Blackwell and Tony Iton. Thank you, Oakland Thrives for a dynamic conversation! Here are my top three points: 1) Be Relentless for Results Focus on the vision that the community deeply desires, by setting co-created goals and benchmarks, which are monitored and tracked by the collective. Community accountability is more than enough and recognize that philanthropy is just one actor. Remember that data and metrics inform you, they don't define you. And they definitely shouldn't stigmatize you. Use it to help you pivot and learn, which you have a responsibility to communicate loudly and regularly. Use it to help you reach community goals, because they deserve it. 2) Don't Wait on the Moment, Make the Moment Of course, you need to build capacity, seek the right conditions, peek around corners, account and raise resources, and line up partners, but don't get those things confused with the intent of the work. The work is to the fruit of these efforts, so you are capable to leap strategically and opportunistically. There is never a time or moment when you will be completely ready to be bold and courageous, you just have to be willing to be bold and courageous when the time arises. Make the moment. 3) Do It with Love Love and respect the people you work with and serve, in that you honor every contribution they make, including showing up and contributing despite the issues going on in their lives. Honor them by privileging their voices at the table. Show them esteem by ensuring they have a seat at the table, and it isn't a folding chair. Give them the regard that when in conflict, you will combat about ideas and behaviors. That you will fight fair like you want to stay in relationship and not divorce from it. Love them like our success depends on it. Love them radically by going after the toughest challenges before us with the biggest gains.
