In this episode, Master Certified Coach and longtime executive coach Patricia Rachel Schwartz shares her strengths-based, story-driven approach to building relationships that “pay off for everyone”—your team, donors, board, and the people you serve.

What you’ll learn · What a 360° Win is—and how to map wins for every stakeholder · The single peak experience question that deepens trust fast · How to run strategy sessions that turn stories into next steps · The RBP spiral: Identify, Inform, Interest, Invite, Invest (and the common mistakes at each stage) · When to make the ask—and why “If you want money, ask for advice” works · Why story culture beats slide decks for board, team, and donor engagement
