The game of philanthropy is changing—and Season 3 of System Catalysts has captured this transformation in real time. In our season finale, English Sall and Jeffrey Walker dive deep into how Next-Gen philanthropists are rewriting the rules of creating lasting change. Gone are the days when funding and expertise alone could solve our most pressing challenges. Through this season’s conversations, they've uncovered something more profound: true transformation begins with deep listening, embraces genuine humility, and views capital not as the answer but as one tool in a larger toolkit for change. But this isn't just an episode about Next-Gen philanthropy. It's a wake-up call for everyone in the social impact space. How do we show up authentically in communities? What mindsets truly serve our mission? How do we leverage our resources to create meaningful, sustainable change? As we stand at this pivotal moment in philanthropy, there's an electric sense of possibility in the air. Join us as we unpack the most potent insights from Season 3, offering a roadmap for anyone passionate about solving the world's toughest problems. ??:? https://lnkd.in/erQJUTMu Special thanks to the team who made this episode happen: ????
