Brinckerhoff Does it Again
2004/12/1
Peter Brinckerhoff's books are not a fast read. Every page is packed with thoughts and ideas. I find myself reading a paragraph and sitting for ten minutes absorbing the implications for the nonprofits I work with. If you are a nonprofit professional or a board member or volunteer, this is a "must read." No one has time or money to waste and everyone wants to do a good job. This book will help you do just that.

It's much more than a book
2008/8/29
Nonprofit Stewardship is more than a book, its really a tool box, with a hammer, a saw, a drill, a screwdriver and even a couple of nails. We read the book together (leadership team and board of directors). It was fun. It helped us to focus on what is really important in our work and why we do what we do. Every member of our leadership team from our Chief Financial Officer to our Development Officer and HR Director found chapters relevant to their work. The Board saw it as an opportunity to better align values and direction with the leadership of the organization. We still use it and the chapter exercises. When someone wants to make an important point with me (I'm the CEO) they will often quote from the book. We were redesigning our Customer Satisfaction System. The Director of Quality and Compliance wanted more "negative" feedback. The rest of the team was amazed. She quoted page 118 "When you measure, particularly when you ask people for their opinion and ideas on how to improve, tell your staff and board this: Praise feeds the ego. Criticism feeds improvement". Buy the book, you'll surely find something in your organization that needs improvement and your customers will be happier that you did.

AN ESSENTIAL NONPROFIT RESOURCE
2008/9/2
Amazonが確認した購入
Peter Brinkerhoff is one of today's most important writers on nonprofit management. Bringing with him over thirty-years experience in leading and developing nonprofit organizations, Brinkerhoff's book, Nonprofit Stewardship: A Better Way to Lead Your Mission-Based Organization is an essential book for all nonprofit executives, staff members and boards.
Brinkerhoff starts off by reminding us that having the privilege of being involved in nonprofit service requires a bigger view than just our own particular motivations. Indeed, being a nonprofit organization puts you at the heart of a larger community (be that local, national or international) and that defining your role within that larger context is vital to building a strong and successful organization.
As a funder, I applaud this concept. In today's tight money economy, it is becoming difficult to fund every important community organization. The key to the survival of these programs lies in collaborative partnerships, sharing services and maximizing resources. Brinkerhoff reminds us to make sure that our mission-based organization carries with it both those activities that appeal to the heart and those that make great business sense. He has developed nine characteristics that stewardship-based organizations strive for. Each of these should be a part of any good new board packet or, indeed, new employee manual.
Beyond that, Brinkerhoff's book is more than just philosophy. It contains common-sense tools that boards (and staff) can use to evaluate their organization and implement more effective ways of planning, tracking finance, taking risks and managing critical projects. His personal observations and both witty and entertaining and thought-provoking. And, again as a funder, his section on the stewardship role of foundations ought to be engrained in each of our grantmaking decisions.
Brinkerhoff even has a section that allows you to take a Personal Stewardship Self-Assessment to see how you measure up. Many know that the success of any good nonprofit organization lies in its leadership. If defining "stewardship" as "maximizing your organization's mission-effectiveness" makes sense; then how vital is it to examine your own leadership potential and find ways to grow as both a leader and a manager.
