## Resource

Gift officers can easily become isolated in the very work that requires the most strategic thinking. Moves management meetings often become reporting sessions instead of collaborative problem-solving opportunities. However, leaning into vulnerability, smaller portfolios, and a simple “bounce-off” approach can change that. The goal isn’t better metrics; its helping donors discover the next step to making an impact on the things they deeply care about.
