'Whether called a redesign, restructuring, or reorganization, for most employees organization design is synonymous with the appointment of leaders into new roles. The announcement email typically begins with “I am pleased to announce my new leadership team….” Regardless of the thought that went into the change or the attempts to describe the rationale behind it, the announcement is often seen as a reshuffling of responsibilities with some new faces and old.

One question that's always likely to come up when I teach a workshop on fund development is, "How do you define a major donor?" People ask this to determine some sort of line in how to thank and care for their donors; where to set the bar in setting aside one group of donors for "special treatment." If that's their goal, then the answer really depends on the size of the organization, and how well-developed and successful their individual giving program is.
