- Synopsis
- Edwards (social work, Rutgers) and Yanky (family and child welfare, Case Western Reserve U. ) present a revision and expansion of two earlier books, Skills for Effective Human Services Management (1991) and Skills for Effective Management of Nonprofit Organizations (1998). Featuring contributions from 31 American academics, consultants, and nonprofit professionals, the text offers nonprofit managers a guide to the skills and competencies needed to lead today's nonprofit organizations successfully. The text is organized around the "competing values framework," a meta-theoretical model of organizational and managerial effectiveness. Coverage includes an overview of the framework followed by sections on its four skill areas--boundary-spanning, human relations, coordinating, and directing--and discussion of the skills needed to manage in turbulent times. For mid- and upper-level managers, and students of nonprofit or public management. Annotation ©2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
