Is your organization's major fundraising initiative stuck in an elongated pause? When large-scale capital campaigns stall, it is rarely due to a lack of passion—it is almost always driven by a phenomenon called "role blur." A lack of clarity surrounding ownership can completely demotivate your internal staff and board of directors, stalling momentum when you need it most.
