The book is a must-read for anyone interested in the effective management of nonprofit organizations." -George W. Kessinger, President and CEO, Goodwill Industries International, Inc.

This is an excellent text for students and also a reference that every nonprofit professional should have on their bookshelf." -Norman A.
