<div class="gmail_default">The episode where we find that Founders have an expiration date...and flying blind in a storm rarely has a good outcome.</div> <div class="gmail_default"> </div> <div class="gmail_default">Enmeshed identity with the organization.

Ep. 3 - Like An Albatross Around Her Neck

<p>The episode where we find out that boards are not really useful but can be enthusiastic.  Bob Nolan, Executive Director of Development for the School of Public Health at Indiana University, takes us through an experience he had in a previous position, where his board approved an ambitious national fund development plan, refused to resource it, and had little interest in its success. We explore why boards behave this way, what could be done differently, and ask our audience to solve the biggest question: What is growing fundraising organically mean anyway?</p>
