Karoff to Address Philanthropy Advisors in LA

On Tuesday, November 2, Peter Karoff will present at a luncheon for the Los Angeles Philanthropic Advisory Network.  The event, entitled “An Interactive Discussion with Peter Karoff,” will be held at the Regency Club in Westwood and will explore Peter’s 21 years in the field of strategic philanthropy and promoting social change.

The discussion will examine Peter’s personal interest in the unlikely connections that are yet to be made between our inner and outer life, our public and private persona, between community broadly defined and the way we feel, think and live our individual, family, professional and public lives. That we often do not find those connections, Peter believes, is part of an unfinished journey. Life flows as a journey that is a kind of paradox of instincts. On the one hand we cherish our private lives, and on the other we are drawn, sometimes reluctantly, to public ones. The same thing that motivates us, and that propels us down the path to community is also what holds us back, what cautions us to not proceed at all. This dichotomy is what makes it so hard to build and sustain communities, and why motivated leadership is so important. It is these twin themes, self and the broader world, as they weave in and out of our life that endlessly fascinate, challenge and satisfy.
