The landscape of both giving and wealth creation has changed dramatically in the past ten years. In this presentation, Katherine Fulton, president of the Monitor Institute, talks about this new era of philanthropy and its potential for making a significant dent in our major social problems over the next decade. She discusses concepts such as venture philanthropy, social entrepreneurship, and social capital, and also considers new roles for government, for-profits, and the civic sector in this movement.
Katherine Fulton is a partner of the Monitor Group and president of the Monitor Institute. Prior to that, she was the co-head of the consulting practice at Global Business Network, where she helped organizations in more than 12 industries manage more skillfully through increasing uncertainty. Over the years, her consulting practice focused on the future of philanthropy and non-profits. She is the co-author of Looking Out for the Future: An Orientation for Twenty-First Century Philanthropists and On the Brink of New Promise: The Future of U.S. Community Foundations. Her efforts have won her both a Nieman Fellowship at Harvard University and a Lyndhurst Foundation prize for community service.
