Fundraising and Nonprofit Team Building Blocks

By Duke Haddad, Ed.D. and Bernard Ross

The process of scouting is not an exact or certain science. But the key qualities for a scout are to be keen on risk taking, have courage, be able to operate alone and not feel isolated, and have experience of other relevant situations to build on. Members of the wagon train have to trust the scout. But remember the scout can only report back what he or she has found or his or her ideas. It’s then up to the organization to sign up to the degree of risk outlined.
