Nominator Comments:
Geoffrey made significant and concerted efforts to building strong relationships internally, to collaborate with others across teams, and to embrace a variety of different viewpoints and perspectives-no easy task given that he started with UWGT during the pandemic. He often brings a fresh perspective in looking at challenges and great new ideas to approach our work. He will often ask thoughtful questions around why we are approaching things a certain way and offer up suggestions on a better and more efficient approach moving forward. He gets involved in literally everything at UWGT-he is the first to raise his hand and volunteer for anything and is often seen playing “greeter” at many a UWGT events-MIG Cabinet Meetings, Women United events, the Local Leaders celebration, to name only a few! Geoffrey was an extraordinarily supportive team mate to his peers. He drew on his 14 years of fundraising experience across a host of different organizations and fundraising methodologies to help his colleagues whenever they were looking for support on developing strategy, proofreading donor correspondence, or feeling a little low.
