5.0 out of 5 stars
Great case studies; you go Minnesota!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Sustaining Innovation: Creating Nonprofit and Government Organizations that Innovate Naturally (Jossey-Bass Nonprofit and Public Management Series) (Paperback)
Book opens with a Zoo, and I was hooked. I read the book voluntarily for a nonprofit management class, and I truly enjoyed it (which I cannot say for the big ol' Jossey-Bass Handbook and others I was forced to read). If you're familiar with the framework systems of Bolman and Deal, this is written from the Human Resources perspective and shows innovative ways of allowing creativity to enhance the mission of the nonprofit (or government agency) while using great examples based on 26 programs in Minneapolis and surrounding areas of Minnesota. If this interests you, I also suggest "Sacred Hoops" by Phil Jackson, and a book I just ordered called "Hope, Human, and Wild" about the Parana capitol city of Curitiba whose mayor is very into the planning part of Human Resource frame, very systems framed as well. So I give it two thumbs up. Go Light. Stay thin, baby.
