Win more awards with industry-leading peer support

The only community of its kind, founded by global development experts for new business development professionals.

Bid Boss's Boss-to-Boss Peer Support Network is designed to foster authentic relationships, aid you in right-sizing proven strategies, and ensure that approaches support your team’s well-being.

This community was designed by and for international development professionals who understand that we need community, despite our tendency to compete directly with one and other for certain funding opportunities. No matter what, we value community over competition.

Does this sound like you?

  • Small team, big expectations

    You are part of a restricted or institutional donor focused business development team (even if you're flying solo!) with high expectations to grow and diversify funding.

  • Craving connection

    You want to build authentic connections with a strong community of business development colleagues who will be there to share strategies, tackle challenging problems, and gut check your instincts.

  • Striving for balance

    You know that a sustainable business development career (and growth strategy!) means playing the long-game, even if it is a day-to-day struggle to set boundaries.
