Want to Keep Your Star Fundraisers? Treat Them Like Your Top Donors

Top performers and rising stars in your organization warrant special treatment, just as top donors do. They contribute more than others, and they raise the bar for everyone. Top donors capture the attention of other organizations, and competition for their philanthropic dollars intensifies. By raising more, top performers and rising stars capture the attention of hiring managers in other organizations who are looking for exceptional talent.

Leading philanthropists thrive on accomplishing great things—many of their gifts fit into the category of "transformational." Leading advancement professionals also thrive on transformational contributions.
