"Navigating uncertain times: the personal, organizational
and public roles of philanthropy" will be presented
by Paul C. Pribbenow, Ph.D., President, Augsburg College.
We live in uncertain times with much less control over
our lives than we might like. As philanthropic professionals,
we face this uncertainty both in our personal and professional
lives.
How do we find our way in the midst of a turbulent
economy? How do we help others to negotiate the anxiety
and fear they are feeling with confidence and continued
commitment to our professional ethics and standards?
Perhaps philanthropy itself offers us a roadmap.
The personal, organizational, and public roles and
values of philanthropy may be the best anchors as we
navigate these uncertain times. Our work is to focus
on how best to steward the gifts of philanthropy!
Paul Pribbenow, holds a Ph.D. in social ethics from
the University of Chicago and is recognized as one of
the leading teachers and commentators on ethics, philanthropy,
and American public life. Pribbenow is a member of the
