The Charismatic Organisation
By Shirley Sagawa and Deborah Jospin
In the same way that charismatic people have followers, so too do charismatic NPOs attract dedicated donors and committed champions.
|
In The Charismatic Organization, the authors show non-profit staff and volunteers how to restructure their organisations, internally and externally, to become more charismatic and more effective. This publication is both an internal communication how-to as well as a guide to transforming an NPO into one that the public (donors) will want to support – a fascinating read.
