Bond LammeyA popular speaker, writer, and networker, Bond Lammey chose the field of prospect research for her career and now amplifies her positive impact by serving as a consultant at Bentz, Whaley, and Flessner where she loves helping her nonprofit clients solve fundraising problems – with research of course!

As a leader in our field, Bond stands out by walking the talk. She has served on nonprofit boards and now serves on the Advisory Board of the School of Business and Nonprofit Management at her alma mater, North Park University, as well as serving as Treasurer on the board of Apra International. In our interview, she also demonstrates her deeper understanding of philanthropy when she talks about how it can be difficult for a philanthropist to give well, especially someone who is new to making major gifts.

For the #CareerCurious among us, especially if you are considering a career in research or are looking to grow your leadership skills in the field, you’ll enjoy hearing Bond share her experiences.

Success Stories

I love your Master Class format – small group, clearly defined curriculum, solid professional information and resources and focus on discussion.  But most importantly I was impressed and delighted to see that you incorporated an additional and extremely practical layer of knowledge, through hands on experience with tools (pivot tables) or resources (Candid).  This adds real value to the educational experience you offer.

Jen’s course on insider stock and compensation was informative, interesting, and well-thought out. Jen broke down the complicated material into digestible pieces. She showed us resources that I use in my day-to-day research that I wouldn’t have otherwise known about. Jen is always quick to respond and has been helpful even after the class has ended. She answers questions thoroughly and is always pleasant.

I was able to take what I learned from the course and present the material to our front-line fundraisers. One fundraiser told me after my presentation that she discovered one of her donor’s compensation was much higher than she thought. So, already, this information has come in handy! Thanks again Jen!

The Capacity Rating Workshop was really useful. I was new to the prospect research field when I took the workshop, so it helped to demystify capacity ratings for me. The online classroom provided a great forum for interaction with the other participants and for a robust exchange of ideas. Beyond that though, Jen shared a wealth of information and resources about capacity ratings and other important aspects of prospect research. I highly recommend this workshop whether you’re new to the field or have years of experience in our profession.
