During his 11 years running the giant Ford Foundation, Darren Walker has dished out more than $7bn to good causes. That sounds like enough to give anyone a warm fuzzy feeling. But Walker seems uneasy about the state of philanthropy as he prepares to step down. Walker told me he thinks the ultra-rich need to approach philanthropy with humility. "Successful people often believe their success in a particular industry or technology has equipped them to solve problems in other verticals where they have no experience, expertise or familiarity." He thinks donors should follow the Ford Foundation's lead by giving most of their money with no strings attached, rather than with restrictions that can create extra work for recipients and "constrain the innovation and creativity in the non-profit sector”.
