Global Practice



At Synergist, we recognize that constituent and donor advancement is not enough. Organizations need trust, cultural nuance, and fluency in expressing generosity and connection across borders.
From Lagos to London, Beijing to Bengaluru, Nairobi to New York, alumni and donors are increasingly global, mobile, and culturally diverse. Institutions that lead must think and act with intention across multiple populations of people. Synergist is uniquely positioned to get your organization across the engagement line.
