Joan Garry’s Guide to Nonprofit Leadership, 2nd Edition

De: Joan Garry

Narrado por: Joan Garry

As a champion for nonprofit leaders hell-bent on maximizing the impact of the nonprofit sector, Joan produced this second edition of Joan Garry's Guide to Nonprofit Leadership during COVID lockdown. She knew that board and staff leaders would need a guide come January 2021 to navigate a world where old rules no longer apply and a world that needs them now more than ever.

A very different time demanded a very different book. Certainly not different in style, Joan's new book is funny, inspiring, and filled with practical advice. Her voice is accessible, and you'll feel you are getting a pep talk from your biggest fan.

Drawing on her own experiences as a nonprofit ED, a board leader, a volunteer, and a donor, Joan shares her stories and introduces you to a host of new characters she has met since 2017. Board and staff leaders will see themselves in these folks - recognizing the mistakes and celebrating the successes.

In this new book, Joan will help you realize that "nonprofits are messy" - too many cooks, too few resources, and an abundance of passion - and tells you the way to find joy and privilege in that "mess".

Enlightening view on Nonprofits

Practical, straightforward, with a dash of humor. As a new director in a chaotic nonprofit, I appreciate the words of wisdom. I have so much to learn, and Joan is now a part of my learning library.

The universe sent me Joan!

I was just hired to be an executive director after taking a 15 year break from my previous np life… thank god I discovered Joan from her podcast, got her book and now feel so empowered and ready to take this on with uber confidence! I’ve already assigned the book and several chapters as must reads for my board. :)
Thank you Joan for such devotion to the *main thing* so we can keep our eyes on our main thing!

Must read for ED and board members

If you are on a nonprofit team you should be reading this book! I wish every nonprofit board member and executive director would read this, it’s a wealth of information and examples
