Click here for tedhart.com He lectures around the world but now is here for you. From the latest in charity news, technology, fundraising and social networking, Ted Hart and his guests help you maneuver through this economic downturn in the charitable sector to greater levels of efficiency and fundraising success. PAGE 2 GUEST EXPERT: Jason Lewis brings us his new book The War for Fundraising Talent, a hopeful critique of professional fundraising, intended especially for small shops that find it difficult to consistently achieve their fundraising goals. Small shop organizations often experience rapid professional staff turnover and high donor attrition which are merely side effects of what Jason believes is a much larger problem. This inter-sector conflict will not be won by those organizations who continue to mistakenly consider their scarcest resource to be donors with dollars. Jason Lewis, CFRE & AFP Master Trainer, provides the sector with an often needed contrarian voice, willing to question deeply ingrained beliefs and assumptions of how effective fundraising really works. Jason is also the host of The Fundraising Talent Podcast. Jason and his guests have an honest conversation about what it means to be a fundraising professional. The podcast provides listeners with a better understanding of what it means to fill one of the sector’s critically important yet least understood roles.
