Over three thousand people have participated in more than twenty live Bold Training events in the U.S., Mexico, Ireland and Australia.



Now the Training is available to you online in seven go-at-your-own-pace modules. It’s for nonprofit staff and boards that are tired of business as usual and who are ready to take the leap and explore their greatest potential for making an impact in the world. For a tiny fraction of the opportunity cost of the current dynamic of your ecosystem, you could reinvent your entire organization.

The Training is taught by Dan Pallotta, who invented the multi-day charitable event industry with the AIDSRides and Breast Cancer 3-Days, which raised more than half a billion dollars in nine years and were the subject of one of the first Harvard Business School case studies on social enterprise. His iconic TED talk on philanthropy has been viewed nearly five million times and is one of the twenty most-commented TED talks of all time. He is one of the founding partners of TED’s phenomenally successful Audacious Project. His seminal book, “Uncharitable,” is the best-selling title in the history of Tufts University Press. The Stanford Social Innovation review said it, “deserves to become the nonprofit sector’s new manifesto.” Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. called his follow-up book, “Charity Case, “an Apollo program for American philanthropy and the nonprofit sector.

I was so incredibly moved by the Training. I don't know if it was just the right content at the right time but I've literally been to 200-300 of those things and that was literally one of, if not the, best I've ever been to. Wish the entire board and staff could have been there.

An excellent investment of time and money. One of the best trainings I have attended. Be prepared to want more.

When I arrived, I also lugged in a fair amount of skepticism, but by lunchtime, it was gone. The conversational quality of Dan's presentation conveyed his considerable knowledge effectively, his occasional inclusion of personal anecdotes was on point and served to clarify otherwise complex ideas, and not once did it come across as scripted. The total avoidance of buzzwords and "industry slang" enhanced Dan's communicative ability to the point that I discarded my auto-armor against it within an hour or so. The material was new to me and the approach fresh. I highly recommend this training.

Bold, at home.
