Reimagining Nonprofits and PhilanthropyReimagining Nonprofits and Philanthropy

Nonprofits do critical work, but are exposed to a host of issues, including lack of funding, society's unrealistic expectations, an inferiority complex with risk-aversion, and a suppression of imagination. Over time, these issues and philosophies have become entrenched in nonprofit and philanthropic leaders, crystallizing into what we see now: A sector that does important work, but that fails to live up to its full potential. Unflinchingly challenging existing long-held beliefs and practices across a variety of issues, Reimagining Nonprofits and Philanthropy: Unlocking the Full Potential of a Vital and Complex Sector clearly and comprehensively lays out the problems the nonprofit sector faces and provides actionable solutions that can easily be put into practice as soon as today." -- Book jacket.
