I’m traveling and have not been able to post on my normal schedule. I have a backlog of posts to publish and will get to them over the next day. In the meantime, don’t miss the excellent conversations brewing in the comments section. A bunch of readers are weighing in on the debate about my claim that “today’s” donors want impact. You can read the various points of view and add your own here. Also George Overholser responds to readers’ concern that his thinking can lead funders to arbitrarily limit overhead expenditures as well sabotage ongoing donor engagement. George is new to the Tactical Philanthropy conversation and the “comments crowd” is expecting him to jump in with both feet. You can catch up on this debate and ask George your own questions here.
