The Jossey-Bass Handbook of Nonprofit Leadership and Management

＂All chapters present the most current research, theory and practice in the field of nonprofit leadership and management with focused attention on the unique challenges confronting all nonprofit leaders, especially accountability, and the increased pressure to demonstrate outcomes and results following one of the most difficult and challenging economic periods in the sector’s history. Organized into five parts featuring original contributions by 28 of the sector’s leading voices, Part One provides the context and institutional setting in which nonprofts operate. Part Two covers the structure of leadership and management in nonprofit organizations with an emphasis on the importance of board effectiveness and the correlation to organizational effectiveness. Part Three examines organizational operations and the management of relationships with internal and external stakeholders and constituents. Part Four provides the strategic dimensions of financial management and includes detailed approaches to achieving financial viability over the long term. Part Five focuses on the effective attraction, selection, retention and management of staff, including volunteers.＂--
