      <image:title>Blog - Which Key Performance Indicators Really Drive Major Gifts and Performance (and Why I Hate Most Frontline Fundraiser Metrics)? - Metrics can be well intentioned but some do more harm than good: Studies by Gallup found that “only 2 in 10 employees strongly agree that their performance is managed in a way that motivates them to do outstanding work.” Bentz, Whaley and Flessner’s 2014 study on “Optimizing Fundraiser Performance” found that 60% of gift officers find their goals to be “inappropriate” and 42% of fundraisers view metrics as “detrimental at worst or ineffective at best in reflecting important behaviors.”</image:title>
