I have informed my Executive Committee that my FY'99 budget will include
a proposal to create a Program Development Officer to the staff and that
the person filling this position will be expected to generate his/her
salary the first year and in five years and beyond, generate 150% of the
salary.  They took it well but asked that I include with my proposal,
the general thinking within the profession on such an approach and some
example of other museums that take this approach.

Guess what I'm looking for?  Do any of you do this?  If so, how well
does it work?
