The Development Cohort
Know & Tell Agency provides accessible, strategic support that helps nonprofit leaders gain clarity, build systems, strengthen connections, and lead with confidence. Learn more about The Development Cohort below.
What is The Development Cohort?
A 3-part strategic journey designed to clarify, measure and invite, The Development Cohort consists of three 90-minute, interactive sessions via Google Meet that will transform your overwhelm into confidence. We limit each cohort to 8 leaders to ensure high-touch coaching and intentional connection.
When you join this cohort, you’re not just signing up for a series of sessions; you’re stepping onto a launchpad, surrounded by like-minded leaders, all working to contribute to good in our world.
The Strategic Journey
Get Clarity for your Mission
Session 1
We work to define your Core Claim, the heart-centered logic of how your work changes lives, and your Internal Alignment to ensure your mission is focused and your capacity is protected. You will leave with the foundation of your C.L.E.A.R. Strategy Workbook and a roadmap on how to find the reliable data and stories needed to complete the rest of your strategy before our next session.
Build Measurement for your Credibility
Session 2
We move from counting heads at activities to measuring the actual transformation in a person’s life. We will teach you how to create rubrics and introduce professional measurement tools to ensure your work is bearing fruit. You will leave with the specific objectives and outcomes needed to set strong SMART Goals that prove your mission’s credibility to any funder.
Create Invitation for your Impact
Session 3
We audit your supporter experience to ensure every touchpoint demonstrates your core belief: the donor is more valuable than the dollar. We will build the stewardship systems that transform one-time givers into lifelong partners. You will leave with a 90-Day Donor Stewardship Action Plan and a proven model you can use for your next campaign.
