I decided several weeks ago, for a variety of reasons, to retire my independent consultant hat. Being an independent consultant was, for me, a way to feel like I was using my skills for the greater good. I’ve been doing this work for more than 10 years now, full time for about seven of those years. And, I think I did that.

On the recent NTEN community call someone asked the panel to name 5 vendors (other than Blackbaud and Convio) to whom we’d send a CRM system RFP for a $100 million nonprofit. Some independent consultants who implement Common Ground have questioned whether my clients even want to consider that product until the dust settles.
