The Power of Synergy
The Power of Synergy, The dream team: Finance and Philanthropy

My answer is always the same – you must create synergy. And the next question is always – how do I do that? This is where the answer isn’t as obvious. There are many paths to achieving synergy and, likely, no two organizations will follow the same one.
