Council on MI Foundations 43rd Annual Conference

Monday, November 9, 2015Tuesday, November 10, 2015
Kalamazoo, MI

Deb Markley will be presenting a session: "Generational Diversity – New Research on Transfer of Wealth Opportunities." Generation gaps are not new. But understanding how to effectively communicate and build community with each generation is critical to impacting transfer-of-wealth decisions. Learn about the generational makeup of America, how generational diversity affects our nation, and new ways to communicate with each generation to positively impact transfer of wealth.

Markley will also be doing a Big Thoughts, Quick Talks roundtable:
Place-rooted foundations have a unique and important role to play in doing economic development differently – that is, economic development that achieves family, community and regional economic prosperity. A wealth-building framework is a useful way to think about this role. Let's talk about how some foundations are playing this role already and how you can apply a wealth-building framework to your work.
