How to Hire Exceptional Nonprofit Development Staff Don’t you hate it when you make a mistake, and it gets covered in the local media? This may happen to you if you hire nonprofit development staff, just as people are getting used to the former development staff. Hiring development staff that doesn’t work out is one of the most expensive and public mistakes nonprofits make. Development staff turnover costs $100,000, plus your board, the donors you’re cultivating, the community foundation, and other nonprofit leaders learn about it. If this happens often, you get a reputation as a place for good fundraisers to avoid.
