MANAGEMENT AND LEADERSHIP OF THE NONPROFIT SECTOR: UNDERSTANDING THE ROLE & MISSION OF NONPROFITS IN OUR COMMUNITY

The workshop will introduce participants to how private, nonprofit organizations have been essential to the creation and evolution of American society since the colonial days. However, a push to professionalize the leaders and employees of nonprofit sector organizations and an accompanying academic literature on the nonprofit sector did not emerge until the 1970s.
