Summary: A must not-for-profit manager read
Comment: I took a seminar from Peter Brinckerhoff about 5 years ago. I went out and bought his book Mission-Based Management right away. It is by far the best Not-For-Profit Management book I have read. I have since purchaced his entire series. The books have given my some great steps in improving our agency.

Summary: A Must for Non-Profit Managers
Comment: This book is a practicle, no-nonsense guide to running a not-for-profit organization. I have been involved in not-for-profit organizations both as an executive director,chairperson,and consultant for over 20 years and still learned a great deal from this book. The writer focuses on 'mission' in the organization but goes much further in relating it to the every day operation and management of the organization including: board fundction, managing people, technology, social entrepreneurship and more. It is a straight forward, practicle, and filled with answers to some of the more complex questions in running a not-for-profit.
The chapter on the role of the board of a not-for-profit was especially helpful. I passed it on to an organizations new chairperson and it helped her in clarifying her role as board chair, and how to bring in and orient new board members.
The book discusses the responsiblity of the not-for-profit to to make money, outlining the fiscal responsiblity of the director and board. It touches on the issue of setting up a profit making arm of a non-profit, and the important, yet complex relationship between the a not-for-profit and government.
This book is a must for new directors and administrators in the not-for-profit world and important reading for those who have been in the not-for-profit world for years. I borowed a copy from a friend and wanted a copy for my own library.
