Grants managers play a pivotal and evolving role in how foundations and corporate funders meet big goals. They put theory into practice, pedal to the metal, and innovation to the test. How?

In this episode of Impact Audio, you’ll hear from two grants managers who are pushing philanthropy forward: Rachel Kimber and Adam Liebling.

Listen in to learn about:

• Why grants managers are also stage managers, buttressing like mad

• How the role evolved from compliance keeper to data’s command central

• What philanthropy needs to swipe from dating app tech

• Why wealth still gets equated with wisdom (at trust’s expense)

• Oral reporting and other ways software should be more than a filing system

Full of passion, intelligence, and healthy debate, this episode is sure to fire you up. We hope it also provides new insights and a bigger framework for understanding grants management, technology, and philanthropy’s forward momentum.
