Building a Nonprofit Organization: A Case-Based Approach offers an evidence-based guide through the nuanced and complex terrain of establishing, leading, and growing nonprofit organizations. The book addresses the necessity for a holistic and dynamic understanding of community needs, integrating management processes, investment, human development, and thorough community assessments. Through the lens of systems theory, this resource aims to equip students with the vital business acumen they need to succeed in the nonprofit sector. The book covers essential elements for developing a nonprofit organization such as mission and vision alignment; ethical, legal, and regulatory frameworks; governance; talent management; and finance. Through the inclusion of real-world case studies and "Voices from the Front" sections (in which nonprofit leaders share their experiences and expertise), students learn about the diverse challenges and creative solutions encountered in the nonprofit landscape. Aligned with the curricular guidelines established by the Nonprofit Academic Centers Council, Building a Nonprofit Organization provides students with a comprehensive view of nonprofit development that aims to foster lasting social impact in communities. It is ideal for courses in nonprofit management, public administration, human services, community services, and philanthropy and nonprofit innovation.
