Jennifer,
You may want to contact your local chapter of American Fundraising
Professionals (AFP--www.afp.org). As a former museum fundraiser,
non-profit board member, and membership chair for AFP, I can tell you
that there are other museums who deal with these issues and the AFP
addresses them.
Good luck!

Subject: [MUSEUM-L] conflict of interest in funding
Some of you recently discussed conflict of interest statements and
policies
related to collections. I would like samples of similar statements
related
to board member affiliations with other organizations. We have board
members who are on the boards of, or work for, other institutions (not
necessarily museums), and actively persue grants and funding for those
other
entities. Things get sticky when our museum discusses funding
opportunities
for which we may end up competing against those organizations that our
board
members work for or with. It is tricky to determine what is
inappropriate
as we have no guidelines or policies governing this type of behavior.
Can
anyone provide me with statements or policies you use?
Jennifer Pena
