Review
"Expressive behavior is action for direct rather than for indirect gratification--play for the sake of play, work for the sake of work, energy spent for the sake of the spAnding." —from the preface

Very often people are attracted to voluntary nonprofit organizations as a way to satisfy these basic needs.

In this highly readable book, Mason combines references to scholarly literature with down-to-earth examples. The book is filled with realistic suggestions for unleashing the powerful force of expressive energy.Leading and Managing the Expressive Dimension applies sound concepts to effective management and leadership practice to equip executives, board members, and volunteer leaders with conceptual and practical tools for reaching their organizational goals. This essential resource book is written for nonprofit leaders, managers, and consultants, teachers of nonprofit management programs, nonprofit scholars, as well as leaders and staff of religious nonprofits.
