In this episode of All About Capital Campaigns, Andrea Kihlstedt sits down with Graeme Watt, co-owner of Anthem Creative, to explore how nonprofit leaders can sharpen their storytelling to strengthen donor engagement and drive campaign results.Graeme shares his journey from founding a grassroots youth nonprofit in his living room to leading large-scale digital storytelling efforts with organizations like World Vision. His experience on both sides of the nonprofit spectrum (nimble startup and global giant) gives him a rare lens into what makes storytelling resonate across channels and audiences.The episode introduces the concept of “anthem stories”: compelling narratives that distill the essence of a nonprofit's mission, vision, and values through the lived experience of a single person or community. Graeme breaks down how these stories can move beyond abstract mission statements to become powerful tools for donor acquisition, cultivation, and stewardship.Key Highlights Include:Why the phrase “whoever tells the best story wins” matters more than ever in a competitive fundraising environmentThe difference between mission statements that glaze over eyes and stories that make people lean inHow to identify your organization's anthem stories, and why you should train your entire team to do the sameStrategies for building a story identification system that draws on frontline staff without overwhelming themHow stories can be used face-to-face by gift officers and board members, or repurposed into long-form content for donor eventsWhy the best campaigns don't just raise money for buildings or equipment—they tell deeper stories about impact and transformationWhat AI may mean for nonprofit storytelling, and why human emotion, authenticity, and connection remain irreplaceableGraeme also discusses how capital campaigns present a unique opportunity to wrap bold, inspiring stories around organizational moments. Whether you're raising funds for a new facility, celebrating an anniversary, or preparing for a major initiative, understanding and communicating the "bigger story" behind your campaign can make all the difference.He and Andrea examine practical examples, including how a $600,000 septic system became part of a $2.8 million storytelling-driven campaign, and reflect on the common hesitation nonprofits feel about telling their own stories. They explore why even experienced fundraising professionals can find it challenging to gather and share stories, and how to shift that mindset by embedding storytelling into organizational culture.To wrap up, Graeme offers two key takeaways:Create a story identification strategy that equips your team to recognize and collect meaningful stories.Be bold. Don't settle for safe, forgettable content. Take creative risks that cut through the noise and connect with the right donors.Whether you're deep into a campaign or just starting to explore how storytelling fits into your fundraising strategy, this episode offers thoughtful insight, practical steps, and inspiring encouragement to help you turn your stories into tools for impact.For more about Graeme's work, visit AnthemCreative.ca.To access free resources on capital campaigns, including guides and tools mentioned in the episode, visit capitalcampaignpro.com/resources.

Send us a textMost of us treat negotiation as a final hurdle. A back-and-forth after the offer's made.That's a mistake.Hiring doesn't end with an offer. And negotiation doesn't start with one.In this episode of the School of Hiring podcast, Konstanty Sliwowski is joined by expert negotiator Stephen Hartley-Brewer to unpack one of the most misunderstood aspects of talent acquisition: the role of negotiation in the hiring process.Stephen started his career in strategy consulting at BCG, then transitioned into high-stakes finance—negotiating complex deals at private equity firms like BC Partners and TPG-Axon. Today, he leads Hartley-Brewer Negotiation Consultants, advising law firms, financial institutions, and business services companies on how to negotiate with clarity, structure, and measurable outcomes.Together, we explore:Why every hiring conversation is a negotiation—from the initial recruiter call to the final interviewHow “harmless” early questions about compensation can set damaging anchorsWhy candidates often signal one thing but mean another (and how to avoid misreading them)How to embed negotiation into every phase of the hiring process to avoid post-offer surprises and reduce mis-hiresThe psychology behind anchoring, misalignment, and missed signals—and how to counter themHow to help candidates feel safe, seen, and understood while protecting your positionWhether you're a founder, CHRO, hiring manager, or candidate you'll walk away with new frameworks to improve offer acceptance rates, negotiate without friction, and secure hires that actually stick.If you want to hire top talent with confidence—not chaos—this episode is a masterclass in negotiation for modern hiring.Check out https://schoolofhiring.com and https://hartley-brewer.com/ for more.

Ever feel trapped in cycles of rumination, overthinking, and constant mental chatter about your anxiety? In this episode, Drew and Josh tackle the challenging question of how to "get out of your own head" without turning it into another exhausting battle.Starting with a thoughtful question from a listener who has built an impressive life despite ongoing anxiety and DPDR but still struggles with constant internal focus, the hosts explore why simply trying to stop thinking doesn't work and what actually does.Key topics covered include:Why "getting out of your head" doesn't mean eliminating anxious thoughtsThe difference between coexisting with thoughts versus fighting themHow to make anxiety the "least interesting thing in the room"Understanding when overthinking becomes a compulsion rather than helpful problem-solvingPractical strategies for redirecting attention while allowing difficult feelingsThe role of willful tolerance in breaking rumination cyclesThe episode features inspiring "did it anyway" stories from listeners conquering agoraphobia with solo travel and managing postpartum OCD intrusive thoughts during daily caregiving tasks.Drew and Josh also address the tricky balance between attention redirection techniques and emotional avoidance, offering guidance for those working with metacognitive therapy approaches.Key Timestamps:[02:30] - Listener question about staying out of your own head[07:30] - Josh's detailed narrative of what being "in your head" actually sounds like[12:50] - Making anxiety the least interesting thing in the room[15:50] - The attention "flashlight" metaphor and experimentation approach[17:00] - Josh's YouTube banner analogy for intrusive thoughts[18:40] - Addressing GAD and the belief that thinking is always helpful[25:00] - Powerful "did it anyway" story about postpartum OCD[29:00] - The role of distraction and attention flexibility[33:40] - Listener question about balancing allowing feelings vs. attention redirectionThis episode emphasizes that recovery isn't about achieving a thought-free mind, but rather developing a healthier relationship with your internal experience while engaging meaningfully with your life.---------Disordered Roundtables are here!

In a world of digital overload, short-form media, and AI-powered personalization, staying focused has never been harder. Today, the average attention span on any screen is just 47 seconds. What's causing this decline in focus, and what should educators do about it?Those are some of the questions we discuss with Dr. Gloria Mark, UC Irvine informatics professor and author of Attention Span: A Groundbreaking Way to Restore Balance, Happiness and Productivity. Dr. Mark explains the psychology behind attention, including the difference between controlled and automatic processing, the role of self-regulation, and how sleep debt, stress and individual cognitive rhythms factor into a student's ability to concentrate. She also points to a growing trend in education: designing classroom content to accommodate short attention spans, which may be unintentionally reinforcing them.The conversation also takes a timely turn into how AI tools—from TikTok's recommender systems to ChatGPT—are changing the way students interact with information, and what that means for deep learning, retention, and even courage in the classroom.Listen to learn:Why shrinking attention spans aren't your fault—and what's really driving themHow schools may be unintentionally reinforcing short-form thinkingWhat AI and automation are doing to deep learning and reflectionThe hidden role of sleep, stress, and self-regulation in attention3 powerful strategies students can use to take back control of their focus3 Big Takeaways from this Episode:1. Short attention spans are not a personal failure—they're shaped by both individual traits and digital environments.Gloria distinguishes between controlled and automatic attention, noting that much of our behavior—like checking phones or clicking notifications—happens without conscious thought. These automatic habits are reinforced by our environment, particularly digital technologies that train us to switch rapidly and respond to constant stimuli.2. Classroom strategies that cater to short attention spans may be doing more harm than good.Gloria highlights a trend in education toward breaking lectures into smaller chunks or assigning only short passages instead of full books. While well-intentioned, these adaptations risk further weakening students' ability to engage in long-form content and develop deep, reflective thinking.3. AI tools like TikTok and ChatGPT are reshaping how students consume and process information—often at the cost of deeper learning.Platforms driven by recommender algorithms use random reinforcement to keep users engaged, conditioning them for rapid content consumption. In the classroom, reliance on generative AI can create a disconnect between students and the material, undermining “depth of processing” and reducing the cognitive benefits of making mistakes.Resources in this Episode:Official website of Dr. Gloria MarkSee official show notes page for more resources!Connect with Dr. Gloria MarkFacebook  |  We want to hear from you!
