Another salient lesson for the boards of #charity and #NGO non-profits.
The lazy habit of employing politically connected, wealthy 'donor whisperers' in leadership roles inevitably leads to failure. To the point where it becomes counter-productive to not just fund raising, but the mission itself. Guide Dogs Victoria is a great example of what happens when a charity becomes captured by wealthy 'conservatives', overcome by their own hubris.
Just because people went to expensive schools and are rich, does NOT make them effective leaders, especially in sectors which exist specifically to mitigate the damage and inequality caused by their class.
"More than two-and-a-half years after the charity was thrust into the biggest scandal of its 65-year history, Guide Dogs Victoria has finally lifted its silence over the affair.
The impact of the Frydenberg affair was “huge” and far-reaching, Guide Dogs Victoria chief executive Nicky Long has told The Klaxon, in an exclusive and wide-ranging interview.
“The impact on the organisation has been huge,” Long said.
“I don’t think there’s anyone internally or even at a volunteer level that didn’t feel the ripple effects of what occurred”."
