The task of managing an institution in the nonprofit sector is by definition challenging. In fact, it often leads to career extinction and personal burnout.One sad feature of this unpromising landscape is that non-profit leaders too often fail to take advantage of the resources that are available to them, an inventory that includes this high-quality niche quarterly,
The Nonprofit Quarterly is issues-driven. That is, you will not only find some practical how-to's in its pages. You will also be exposed to the trends, issues, threats, and opportunities that are only observed well from 30,000 feet.
Sometimes examples are the best teachers. Volume 13/2 of TNQ included features entitled 'On the Road to Find out', 'In Whose Interest: Do National Nonprofit Advocacy Organizations Represent the Under-represented?', 'Do Big Names Really Draw Big Bucks?', 'Founders Who are Effective Over Time: Their Chracteristics', 'Emerging Nonprofit and Foundation Enforcement Issues', and 'Tiny Bubbles: A Guide to the *New* New Nonprofit Economy.'
In addition, valuable contributions come via the magazine's standing departments: 'Financial Management', 'Teaching Tools', and 'Philanthropy'.
TNQ is part of my ongoing education and support system. 'No need to do without it.
The writing is top-notch, and they cover the issues that really matter.
The magazine articles, combined with their frequently updated website, gives deep insight into industry trends and breaking news in the sector.
Highly recommend!!
