Klappentext Praise for ManagingNonprofits.org "Hecht and Ramsey have hit a home run. ManagingNonprofits.org not only applies lessons learned from the dot.com world's use of technology and the Internet to the nonprofit sector but helps nonprofit managers to adapt the best new management and leadership practices to their efforts. It is an invaluable tool for helping nonprofits reshape their old ways of doing business." -Milton J. Little Jr. Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer National Urban League "Ben Hecht and Rey Ramsey pull no punches in stating forcefully why non-profits have to modernize their approaches to management in the digital age. Lessons abound as to why this is so, and the authors' new book presents them most effectively." -Lawrence M. Small Former President and Chief Operating Officer Fannie Mae "This book is the only one on the market specifically designed to help nonprofit managers understand and harness the power of technology and the Internet to strengthen the organization and better serve customers. Start building your Digital Culture today by buying this book and giving it to your employees, your board, your funders." -Paul Shoemaker Executive Director Social Venture Partners "This book is the road map to the 21st century that nonprofits so desperately need-and have been waiting for. Any organization that aspires to a role in our changing economy will find in these pages the tools they need to embrace and leverage such change for positive growth. Ben Hecht and Rey Ramsey have combined vision along with practical experience to produce a book that will not only help organizations survive and get to scale, but will ultimately save lives through stronger communities." -Bill Shore Founder and Executive Director Share Our Strength "The power of technology to help solve societal problems is awesome. But first, technology and the right applications must get into the culture and hands of our most committed and knowledgeable-the not-for-profit sector and its legions of staff and volunteers. This exciting book shows the way." -Angela Glover Blackwell Founder and President PolicyLink Zusammenfassung Nonprofit managers have been slow to embrace the digital age. Although technology has transformed the face of the for-profit sector and how it operates! nonprofit use of technology to improve internal functioning and to change the way services are delivered is almost nonexistent.
