8 red flags to fix now.
Before your director of development gives notice.
Most organizations can claim at least a few of these. The question is: are you going to wait until someone gives notice to deal with them?​​

Between Development Directors?
Your development director just left (or gave notice). Now you're doing two jobs: running your organization AND leading fundraising. Plus managing a search. Plus keeping your team from burning out.
Most organizations scramble through this period. Revenue slips. Donors wonder what's happening. Your remaining staff doesn't know what to prioritize. And when you finally hire someone, they inherit a mess — which is why so many leave within 18 months.
It doesn't have to be this way. With the right roadmap, you can actually keep fundraising strong during the transition and set up your next hire to succeed (not just survive).
