Nonprofit Management and Leadership
This course provides an overview of management challenges associated with leading nonprofit organizations, particularly on the changes and challenges taking place in the sector as a whole. Readings emphasize the environment within which nonprofit work is performed, the distinctive characteristics of nonprofits that result from societal pressures, legal requirements, and cultural values, and if/how leadership in nonprofits differs from leadership in other sectors. Teaching in this course is structured to promote the integration of research and writing on nonprofit management with practical “real world” case studies of nonprofit organizations.
