Governing for Nonprofit Excellence
Today's nonprofit boards face unprecedented challenges: downsizing and closing facilities, structuring and managing key alliances, and identifying and pursuing new revenue streams. This program provides the governance frameworks board members need to define and oversee the organization's mission, assess and measure performance, and reexamine their board roles and responsibilities. Participants must be nonprofit board chairs and members in leadership roles who are not employed full time by the organization they are representing.
Performance Measurement for Effective Management of Nonprofit Organizations
To improve the effectiveness of a nonprofit organization, an executive must first determine its current performance. Performance Measurement for Effective Management of Nonprofit Organizations (PMNO) helps with this challenging task by demonstrating measurement and its impact on resource allocation, organizational learning, internal processes, and internal and external accountability.
Strategic Perspectives in Nonprofit Management
In a time of shifting demands for services, changing operating environments, and recurring financial pressures, the skills of nonprofit leaders are put to the test. Strategic Perspectives in Nonprofit Management (SPNM) provides executives with the opportunity to examine their missions and develop new strategies.
The program fee covers tuition, books, case materials, accommodations, and most meals.
