Abstract

Thanking helps organisations to build relationships. In particular, charities need to thank as they build up coalitions of interest around issues, and as, in many cases, they raise income. So what can be learned from some professional thankers, and scholars, in the NGO sector?

You’ll learn:
• The importance of thanks in interpersonal communications and NGO communications
• What we can learn from NGO sector best practice and guidance
• A framework for thanking built on NGO research
