An essential and practical resource for the nonprofit field.
Celebrating its fortieth anniversary, this classic is now updated for a
new generation. Tens of thousands of staff members, trustees, students,
and volunteers can once again hone skills and acquire new knowledge from
this significantly revised and expanded volume. Nonprofits today face
new challenges: political, economic, and demographic shifts affecting
governance, funding, and services. At the same time, organizations still
require strong leadership and skilled management. But in an age of
technological innovation, they must leverage social media and viral
marketing, reassess service delivery, and meet the needs of new
constituents.
Dr. Wolf's update of Managing a Nonprofit Organization broadens the
conversation and includes new chapters on diversity, equity, and
inclusion; philanthropy; and crisis management in our highly connected,
social media-fueled world. The book looks anew at the pillars of
nonprofit management--assembling a cohesive team, recruiting the right
members for the board, creating good internal policies and sound
financial management, ensuring long-term sustainability, and providing
effective leadership. At the same time, Dr. Wolf offers an updated
roadmap for raising money and telling your story effectively. The book's
easy-to-understand language and study questions at the end of each
chapter guide readers through the complexities of the nonprofit world,
giving you everything you need to succeed.
