Editorial Reviews

From Booklist

Many management concepts and practices apply universally, but nonprofit organizations have many unique aspects that make administration and direction of them different. A few books, most notably Peter Drucker's Managing the Non-Profit Organization (1990), have considered this. Now Herman, who teaches nonprofit management at the graduate level at the University of Missouri at Kansas City, and publisher Jossey-Bass have brought together 28 experts in the fields of nonprofits and management to give us this encyclopedic look at what is sometimes called the third sector. Divided into five major sections (the nature of nonprofit organizations and their context in society, leadership issues, management of operations, development and management of financial resources, and managing people) that address such issues as fund-raising, managing volunteers, lobbying, ethics, and government contracts, the Handbook should become a major reference work for this subject of growing significance. David Rouse


Review

“The bible of nonprofit management”
PM Network

“This collection brings together the leading experts in the nonprofit and management fields to describe effective practices in all the important functions, processes, and strategies of nonprofit organizations.”
Business Horizons

“[The book] enumerates various strategies for generating revenue and outlines a thoughtful process for managers to follow in implementing a revenue-generating activity.”
Foundation News & Commentary

“The comprehensive nature of the volume and the quality of the essays make this work an essential addition to the libraries of all nonprofit organizations. The essays are presented in a clear, concise format and are meaningful to both the experienced manager and the neophyte.”

3.0 out of 5 stars Good Source For Information, May 7, 2000
By A Customer
While this book does contain a lot of invaluable information, I caught myself dozing off several times while reading. It is a good book for use as reference and a wonderful tool for concrete guidance, but I have found other books with same information less "text book" and easier to read.

4.0 out of 5 stars An excellent "tool book" for any nonprofit leader, November 5, 2006
By Hunter (PacNorWest) - See all my reviews
Bought the book for a class. Initially thought it was going to be long and dry because it's so big. But, was pleasantly surprised. The book is full of useful and user-friendly information. This one is staying on my shelf.
