"Advice and talking heads are everywhere in our profession. It can be overwhelming After 42 years I discovered the Five Truths we need to embrace, and cling to, every day.
"Winning teaches these Five Truths using stories. Storytelling is the heart of what we do. And it's how people learn."
"As fundraisers, I view us as storytellers and Rob is a masterful storyteller. That comes through time and again in this book. It's a must-read for every fundraising professional - whether just starting in the field or seasoned veteran.
