Rezension zu „Nonprofit Management “
"As a practitioner/instructor, I find your book enormously helpful and the feedback I am receiving from students is very positive. While each chapter is packed with information, I am particularly grateful for the journal articles and case studies that are linked to the chapters. In addition to the course content, I organized the course around a particular issue, domestic violence in Baldwin County, GA. I've had three people speak to DV and another six who match up with the chapter themes - an executive director, evaluator/assessment person, donor relations, community foundation CEO, grant writer, etc. visit the class each week. I simply want to thank you for Nonprofit Management: Principles and Practices." -- Gregg Kaufman
