“Nonprofit Management Principles and Practice provides an excellent overview of the complexities, management challenges, and importance of the nonprofit sector in the United States. It’s easy-to-use format is appropriate for undergraduates and entry-level nonprofit professionals who wish to develop a broader understanding of the nonprofit sector.”
I used a previous edition of this text last fall and my students loved it. Of special note are the cases at the end of each chapter, which gave students opportunities to apply and compare various management approaches to realistic situations. I plan to use the latest edition of this text in fall 2019.
Well organized text - broad scope of the US nonprofit sector - powerpoints provided
Great book, comprehensive and has plenty of material for students. Highly recommended.
Michael Worth has produced a comprehensive overview of the nonprofit sector that provides students with a strong foundation in nonprofit management. The book has recent updates relevant to new policies effecting nonprofit organizations. Although it is primarily focused on the US context, there is ample treatment of NGOs and other topics like social entrepreneurship that have a broader application. The book also includes ancillary materials for instructors that facilitate a variety of enhancements to the classroom.
