On the one hand, you are having a conversation in real time with a donor or prospect. But on the other hand, you can’t see the person, read their body language, or establish a face-to-face connection with them.

Project delays, indecision, duplicated efforts, and responsibilities falling to the wayside are all symptoms of a strategy that lacks governance. Luckily, these symptoms can be remedied with a little effort and governance planning.
