"Many in the field do not know how to fully achieve nonprofit success because they have not experienced it. Their competency is not fully developed for the complex nature of the nonprofit sector. I have experienced nonprofit success, as you will see from my experiences. As a Doctor of Education, understand my prescriptions, follow my instructions, and achieve your own level of nonprofit success."
Nonprofit management involves a number of elements. These include working with administration, staff, board, donors, volunteers, community, and an array of internal and external players. As a nonprofit professional, you constantly seek time, talent and treasure from individuals, corporations, foundations, associations, and organizations. There are approaches to achieving degrees of success in mastering the art of nonprofit professional experience. This sector is a combination of art and science.
In this book, based upon decades of service, you will study articles written for various publications throughout my career. Important topics covered include fundraising at various stages of the donor process, donor relations, and donor stewardship. Other topics include career advice, board development tips, how to achieve corporate wins plus a host of other interrelated subjects.
I have always believed you must constantly blend theory and practice. Reading my book will help you prepare for the challenges you will face as you advance your career to higher levels. I have worked in every facet of nonprofit administration during my fifty year career which is still going strong.
This book is based upon successful experiences in a variety of nonprofit settings over time. I hope you are inspired to value my "prescriptions" that will provide solutions to your questions. Seek to chart your own successful nonprofit career path, learn from my experiences and serve others well! Thanks, Duke.
