What’s The Mission Myth About, Anyway?
The nonprofit sector is an outstanding, fulfilling…tricky, messy place. I know it because I ran a nonprofit for seven years. I made lots of mistakes. And learned from each one. Which made me realize there’s hope – not just to do good. But to do good…well. And so I’ve written a book about how I did it. – The Mission Myth.
The Mission Myth describes the belief that nonprofits should put everything they have – their focus, their time, their money – into their missions to be successful. Wrong.
The truth? It is only when they integrate what I call the four Ms – Management, Money, Marketing and Measurement – into their business that they achieve optimal results.
The book is divided up into four “M” sections and includes a number of stories, anecdotes and practical tips to help nonprofits achieve excellence and their leaders achieve a better night sleep.
This book is for current nonprofit leaders – and those who want to be one someday. It’s also for anyone who wants to advance the sector, including board members, volunteers, foundations and donors.
