Episode Description

The HiPPO: Highest Paid Person's Opinion.

This is the tendency in most organisations for people to just follow the opinion or decision of the most senior person in the room when ideas are being presented, even if it is not usually the best idea, and certainly not the most creative idea.

For information on how you can overcome the HiPPO, read the full article over at https://www.ideatovalue.com/lead/nickskillicorn/2019/01/hippos-are-killers-of-ideas/

Why do people give? Mark Phillips From face to face to regular giving and from high value to reporting back, the roots of our favourite fundraising techniques go back many, many years. It's astounding that the ideas and tactics our fundraising forebears developed still boost income when we use them in the technologically advanced environment of today. As a result, when I consider a fundraising problem I always look to the past and use that understanding to create a solution for today. As part of my personal fundraising journey I've been spending time with the fundraisers who were involved in some of the most amazing campaigns from the second half of the 20th century to see what what I can learn from them. And I thought it would be a good idea to share their thoughts and stories so everyone can benefit - so I recorded them. This series of podcasts is the result.
