In the 46th episode of CultivatED Marketer – your go-to marketing professional development podcast – hosts Brent Bowen and Julie Masson are joined by Lacey Graverson, Senior Manager of Brand and Strategic Communication at the Ewing Marion Kauffman Foundation. Together they explore how to steward a major nonprofit brand through strategic alignment, clarity, and consistent messaging. Lacey shares her career path into PR and branding, highlights the value of discovery meetings to create shared direction, and explains how the foundation’s storytelling focuses on grantees, entrepreneurs, students, and community impact rather than the foundation itself. She discusses how brand stewardship requires organization-wide buy-in and message discipline, then details the Uncommon Leader Visionary Award.
