Many fundraisers can share about a time where a donor overstepped one of their personal boundaries. Yet historically, the non-profit sector has not been proactive about preparing for when a donor says or does something inappropriate.
A fundraiser is tasked with bringing in funds for an important cause, but that should never come at the expense of their personal well-being. Fundraisers need to be clear on their own personal boundaries, and they need to feel the support of their organization when a situation arises.
In this episode featuring special guest Rachel Wyley, CEO and Founder of Culture Kinesis, we talk about the power dynamics at play and how fundraisers and leaders can respond when a donor says or does something that crosses a line.
Show Highlights: In this episode, we discuss…
The power dynamics at play in conversations between donors and fundraisers
How to define your own personal boundaries for both physical and psychological safety
The lack of support for fundraisers who are dealing with uncomfortable or inappropriate situations
What can leaders do to better protect and care for their staff
How fundraisers can respond when a donor says or does something that crosses a boundary
