There is a controversy on administrative support for major-gifts officers (MGOs) going on right now that doesn't make any sense to me.
The conservative managers/leaders are saying: "An MGO does not need support to do his or her job!" They are emphatic about it. These are the same folks who want the MGO to be OUT OF THE OFFICE!! I capitalized that because that is how STRONGLY they feel about it.

He always finds something funny in everything.

Richard believes that successful major-gift fundraising is not fundamentally about securing revenue for good causes. Instead it is about helping donors express who they are through their giving. The Connections blog will provide practical information on how to do this successfully. Richard has more than 30 years of nonprofit leadership and fundraising experience, and is founding partner of the Veritus Group.
