Many fundraisers are motivated by a desire to help organizations make a difference, as well as a goal for personal development and financial stability. However, the path to attaining both can appear difficult, particularly when working in an environment that does not necessarily correspond with those objectives. This is where fractional executives step in. As experienced experts, fractional fundraisers provide strategic counsel and hands-on knowledge to organizations in need of assistance without incurring the overhead expenditures of a full-time employee. For NGOs, this is an opportunity to get leadership and guidance from experienced fundraisers who can help maximize efforts and resources. For consultants, fractional assignments provide the opportunity to establish a successful business that matches their personal objectives for abundance while also providing freedom and financial incentives.

Meet Cindy Wagman, a dynamic figure in the fundraising sector who teaches experienced fundraisers how to start consulting as fractional executives. Throughout the conversation, Cindy discusses her transition to fractional executives in nonprofits, who is fractional executives, their role, and their growing popularity, the challenges and benefits of fractional fundraising, the impact of fractional fundraisers on organizations, identifying the right organizations for fractional fundraising, consulting as a career path for experienced fundraisers, and more.
