Applied Wisdom for Nonprofits: Eight Practical Tools for Leadership is a compact and lively handbook for anyone who works in a nonprofit organization. Jim Morgan believes that whatever your job title, you can improve your management skills with understanding and practice. He shares his proven insights into management through easy-to-remember maxims called "Morganisms," designed to allow individuals or teams to think about and then apply management principles to complex, real-life situations. Each of the eight short chapters includes "discussion prompts" for people at all levels of your organization, carefully designed to provoke a lively dialog between executive directors, emerging leaders and board members.
