Knowing What People Prefer
When we decide to give someone a gift, we usually try really hard to get a gift that is meaningful to the person we’re giving it to. Makes sense.
When we seek to succeed with our philanthropic investors, unfortunately, a sort of organizational narcissism often kicks in.
“How?” you say.
By thinking of what we value rather than what our donors value.
