In this episode of The Journeys of Not So Ordinary People Podcast, Dr. Dave Peltz and Dr. Joe Hamlett host Angela Barnes, a nonprofit consultant and boundary-setting advocate. Angela shares her career transition from corporate sales and marketing to nonprofit consulting, detailing how her experiences with people-pleasing and the "good girl" syndrome initially hindered her effectiveness.

A compelling look into the sensitive topic of inappropriate behaviors exhibited by donors towards nonprofit organizations. Angela Barnes from Carter Global and Jack Alotto from Fundraising Academy explore the deep issues and emerging solutions within the nonprofit sector. Watch on video! Angela vividly articulates the longstanding issue, noting that problematic donor behaviors, though historically discussed only behind closed doors, have begun to garner public attention. She describes the critical feedback they have received and the substantial progress being made in addressing these concerns. "It's a subject we're talking about, but it's gone on for decades within the sector," Angela says, pointing to the persistent nature of the problem. Jack adds historical context, referencing a study by AFP on sexual harassment that included not only donors but also board members and staff. This info sparked deeper considerations about the underlying causes of such behaviors. "It got me thinking about what's going on here and what we are maybe doing that is part of the cause," as Jack describes his concern and approach to the issue. A significant focus of this informative conversation is the proposal of a "donor code of ethics" as a structured response to these challenges. This initiative aims to establish clear expectations and boundaries between nonprofits and their donors, ensuring respectful and ethical interactions. Angela and Jack discuss the necessity of organizational documents that outline these boundaries and how they should be communicated through this donor code. As the conversation continues, it becomes clear that the nonprofit sector's reliance on donors sometimes complicates the response to inappropriate behaviors, with organizational leaders often hesitating to confront or alienate contributors. Jack and Angela argue for a balance between securing resources and maintaining ethical standards, pointing to the importance of respecting and protecting staff and organizational values over accepting donations. Angela and Jack provide a roadmap for nonprofits to empower themselves and redefine the dynamics with their donors, one that emphasizes ethics, respect, and mutual values.Follow us on the Twitter: @Nonprofit_ShowSend us your ideas for Show Guests or Topics: HelpDesk@AmericanNonprofitAcademy.comVisit us on the web:The Nonprofit Show

Centuries ahead of those “Brits Abroad” tabloid headlines that make us hang our heads in shame, the British were still managing to cause chaos on the continent.

Unraveling the complexities surrounding donor dominance in the nonprofit sector. With an emphasis on ethical fundraising practices, Angela Barnes and Jack Alotto discuss the subtle yet impactful dynamics that can arise between donors and organizations. Donor dominance, as Barnes articulates, is not a sudden occurrence but rather a result of gradual actions that erode organizational boundaries. It emerges when donor-centric fundraising lacks clear communication and defined limits. Alotto corroborates this by citing instances where donors exert influence over organizational decisions, leading to mission drift or compromised values. One key takeaway from the discussion is the importance of establishing clear boundaries and ethical guidelines for donors. Barnes introduces the concept of a "donor code of ethics," which outlines expectations for both donors and organizations. By fostering transparency and accountability, such codes aim to maintain the integrity of nonprofit missions while honoring donor contributions. The conversation delves into the power dynamics inherent in fundraising, highlighting the challenges faced by fundraisers in navigating donor expectations. Barnes and Alotto stress the need for fundraisers to advocate for their organization's mission and values, even in the face of substantial financial offers. The trio also speaks about the evolving landscape of philanthropy, where donors increasingly seek collaborative partnerships rather than mere transactional relationships. Barnes and Alotto advocate for a shift towards a community-centric fundraising model, where donors are viewed as allies in advancing organizational missions rather than saviors. This is candid dialogue, sharing personal anecdotes and insights gleaned from the extensive experience our guests have in the nonprofit sector. Their collective commitment to fostering ethical fundraising practices serves as a beacon for fundraisers navigating the complexities of donor relationships, reminding fundraisers to uphold ethical standards, and prioritize mission integrity in all donor interactions.

This time Angela tells John how in 1917, the German Foreign Minister, Arthur Zimmerman sent a telegram to his man in Washington. Sounds dull?
