Recenzii
Berman provides the most holistic and practical treatment of the overarching task of nonprofit leadership since [Jim] Collins' 2005 [Good to Great and the Social Sectors]. His book is a timely and worthy successor, not least because it traces how the nonprofit world has subsequently fallen into disarray.
In his new book, [Greg Berman] shares his wisdom as to "lessons learned" and the traits that future nonprofit leadership should demonstrate to steward their organizations through "culture war strife" and toward a greater public trust.
There is much to love about Greg Berman's excellent new book "The Nonprofit Crisis": Bermans emphasis on the importance of nonprofits earning public trust, the challenges of polarization and politicization within the sector, and the imperative of civic organizations living up to their promises, among other things.
[Berman] offers incisive, cross-cutting critiques of the nonprofit sector, describing well-intentioned but disruptive 'younger employees actively revolting against leadership that they view as racist, sexist, autocratic, and out-of-touch.' He laments that because of their politicization, nonprofits have become 'both victims and purveyors of polarization.'... His overall worldview is not radical... His approach to problem-solving is thoughtful, realistic, and pragmatic, actively averse to the temptations of ideological purity tests or extremism.
Berman skillfully supports his arguments with a combination of stories about single nonprofits, taken mainly from the news media and academic arguments adapted from journals. Berman is not an academic and, thankfully, does not write like one, but his presentation of academic research is clear and accurate.
Practical, well balanced, and readable, The Nonprofit Crisis is recommended to all levels.
