What are the basics every donor relations professional should know? Think it through from your own point of view. If you were hiring a new person who would take on half of your work, what skills would he or she need?  What talent and experience would you be looking for?  What knowledge would you need to share right away?  Quickly list off the ten qualities or abilities required for your job (no really, jot ‘em down). Now put a star by the one that you think is the most important.

Interested in learning more? Join Anne on August 25th when she will be covering the topic for the ADRP webinar, Things Every Donor Relations Professional Should Know. The webinar will combine the input from a survey of seasoned professionals and two conference sessions with an inevitable sprinkling of Anne's own experience from the field and lots of advice shared by your peers. Please join in to compare the ten items on your list to those of the respondents.
