They address such issues as leadership and board development, strategic planning, staffing, fundraising, partnering, productivity improvement, and accountability.Emphasizing the context of nonprofits and detailing improvements than can be made by managers at all levels, the book strikes a balance between policy discussion and practical usefulness.
