Andrew Spector, TPF Fellow - Learning and Applying a Multifaceted Approach to Philanthropic Impact

Описание: In this Beyond The Blog episode, focused on the Advancing Philanthropic Leadership initiative, Debra Jacobs, President and CEO of The Patterson Foundation, sits down with Andrew Spector, Senior Fellow 2023/25, to reflect on his winding path to the Lilly Family School of Philanthropy (LFSOP) and The Patterson Foundation and his experience in year three as a Senior Fellow. 

In this conversation, Andrew discusses the value of the TPF Fellowship in broadening his understanding of the role and impact funders can have beyond the check, and diving into a range of skill-building and networking opportunities that benefit both him and the organization. The work has challenged him, strengthened him, and evolved his aspirations as he looks for what’s next within his launch phase.
