Meeting the Job Challenges of Nonprofit Leaders: A Fieldbook on Strategies and Actions

By: Jean Lobell,Mohan Sikka,Pavitra Menon

Nonprofit organizations need to depend on mission-oriented, motivated, and committed leaders who have a mix of social awareness, programmatic expertise, operational knowledge and skills, strong relationship capacities, and sound judgment to deliver results in an environment in which they must function and fulfill their missions with very limited resources while simultaneously demonstrating the impact of every dollar they raise.Community Resource Exchange, a management consulting firm that works with nonprofit organizations of all sizes, delivers leadership and management programs designed to build the competencies of nonprofit leaders. This fieldbook aims to put many of the skills and insights gained by participants in CRE's cohort learning programs into the hands of more nonprofit leaders.The strategies offered here will provide nonprofit leaders with approaches to their challenges that shift their perspective on things or stretch their current repertoire of practices and competencies. Applying these approaches are developmental experiences, enabling nonprofit leaders to supplement or deepen their leadership talent. By implementing the suggested approaches, nonprofit leaders will learn by doing, a key ingredient in adult learning.

Rethinc

What’s Broke at Today’s Corporations and How to Fix It

By: T T Ram Mohan

Corporations are crucial to society’s well-being. Yet, not many have chosen to adapt themselves to the expectations of employees and the society at large. Prof. Ram Mohan identifies the three main problems that ail companies and illustrates the ways in which these can be combated. Most companies are still run from the top and make very little attempt to involve employees at the lower levels in decision-making. Executive compensation has spiralled steeply in recent years because the process of determining it is seriously flawed. Boards of directors are ineffective and have abetted the cult of the charismatic CEO who is expected to work wonders. Rethinc contends that the solution lies in the near-total dismantling of hierarchy or the creation of a ‘bossless’ organization. In such an organization, the structure is flat, employees operate through self-driven teams, there is peer review, power rests on one’s contribution and not one’s title and the organizational purpose goes beyond the making of profit, and several other features. Once all this is done we will have an achieving organization that is also a humane organization—in which the employees are raring to get to work every day.

The Geography of Taste

Aesthetic preferences and practices vary widely between individuals and between cultures. How should aesthetics proceed if we take this fact of aesthetic diversity, rather than the presumption of aesthetic universality, as our starting point? How should we theorize the cultural origins and cultural basis of aesthetic diversity? How should we think about the value and normativity of aesthetic diversity? In an effort to model what the turn toward diversity might look like in aesthetic inquiry, each author defends a different account of aesthetic diversity, and they engage in a collective dialogue about these issues"--

Any qualifying degree in management, engineering, science etc is just a passport to enter into an organisation as a rough stone falls into a river water, over a period by induction, training and organisational exposure, and peer group interaction becomes a soft and well-rounded pebble that aspires to become a petal attracting attention from professional groups, soon a higher responsibility in a functional area adores. “A Rose is a Rose call it by any other name” Mr. Manager, wouldn’t you like to brand one yourself? In everyone’s life’s there comes a phase of self-actualisation by virtue of gaining pearls of wisdom, wealth, honour societal recognition. Similarly all successful corporate managers enjoy the same as pearl after two stages of transformation - pebbles and petals. Now what’s in store for an entrepreneur? Though an entrepreneur faces several functional challenges like production, marketing, finance, HR etc but after the two stages of struggle and success as pebble and petal, one is sure to enjoy the fruits of labour. He gains not only pearls of wisdom, power, position and wealth in abundance opening channels for vertical and horizontal growth opportunities etc. The author in his creative mood covered the contents to give an overview of several management topics with personal anecdotes and success stories. This edition will surely self-help, improve performance and make one a leader. Good Luck
