Starting Small and Dreaming Big will offer key considerations and practical advice for developing a collaborative culture of grantsmanship at small to medium-sized organizations. During this presentation, the presenter will share her experiences developing a grants office at a small liberal arts university and growing into a collaborative model that facilitates the awarding of $1 million or more of grant revenue on an annual basis. The presenter will share advantages and disadvantages to this collaborative model from the academic, advancement, and financial perspectives.

- Identification of key considerations for developing a grants office at an institution of higher education
