AMERICA'S Top 25 Most Influential Philanthropy Experts
|
|
After a month of voting, rigorous research and data analysis, it is time to announce the wildly anticipated list of the Top 25 Most Influential Philanthropy Experts for 2016. We release our newest edition of the Top 25 every Spring - it's a nice way to honor some of the hardest workers in our tight-knit community.
We asked our newsletter readers, social media followers and radio listeners to submit the names of Philanthropy Experts who are influencers in the charitable sector.
Of course, voting is only one part of the complex, mostly boring (but fun for us!) formula that goes into calculating what makes someone truly influential in philanthropy. Here's how we arrived at the rankings: We measured Vote Totals, Social Impact, and Traditional Influence for each person that received a vote. The Impact scores took into account only what someone has done within the last year to truly stay up-to-date as an influential philanthropy expert.
You'll notice that while there are still some movers and shakers from past years, there are quite a few new experts on the list! The competition for being one of the most influential experts in philanthropy is fierce!
So are you ready? Let's get to it!
