Voluntary, arts, housing and
campaigning organizations and other professional groups are all part of Britain's
expanding 'third sector' -non-profit-making organizations that are motivated by social
rather than economic objectives. In this groundbreaking book, Mike Hudson, management
consultant and founder of Compass Partnership, sets out the essential elements of
management that are needed to make these organizations successful. Thoroughly revised and
updated, and containing new chapters, this indispensable guide demonstrates how to:
- establish strong and
suitably constituted boards
- strengthen
strategic management and performance
- develop a mission and
clarify objectives
- manage
and inspire people, as individuals and teams
- create a
learning organization
- manage
change
