Book Reviews of Managing a Nonprofit Organization in the Twenty-First Century
Book Review: Keep going back to it again and again for information
Summary: 5 Stars
I read book before forming the Diabetes Hands Foundation, a nonprofit we formed in early 2008. All through the formation process and ever since then, I have found myself going back once and again to revisit passages in this book for confirmation of things I am unsure of: it keeps helping me find answers to just about any question I think of.
As a recent President of a nonprofit, I can only say good things about this book and would recommend it to people in charge of managing any nonprofit: the sooner you read it, the more you will learn before it is too late and you have made important mistakes.
Summary of Managing a Nonprofit Organization in the Twenty-First Century
Since this classic work was originally published in 1984, there have been major shifts in the nonprofit world -- the growth of more profit-oriented ventures, the overhaul of accounting rules, new partnerships, and an emphasis on customer-oriented service and leadership. In easy-to-understand language, Thomas Wolf explains how to cope with these changes and deal with the traditional challenges of managing staff, trustees, and volunteers.
