Passages about Managing Relationships between Organizations

Chapter 9 in Management and the Gospel, 2013, pp 75-81 from Palgrave Macmillan

Abstract: Abstract Recall that the terms “patron” and “benefactor” were both prevalent in the first century, and often appear to have been used interchangeably, but that there were important differences between them. The Roman version of patron-client relationships, where the benefactor had a duty to create long-term clients who were subservient to the patron, was dominant. However, the older Greek understanding of benefaction as giving resources for the good of the larger community without expecting anything in return had not been forgotten (e.g., Seneca).1
