Forces for Good
Are you involved with a non-profit organization? Did you know that over 1.5 million non-profits exist in the United States and over 300 in the Ojai Valley alone? Pretty phenomenal when you think about it. I just finished reading a book by Leslie Crutchfield and Heather McLeod Grant, two MBAs, who wrote a study on high impact non-profit organizations. The books is called Forces for Good: The Six Practices of High-Impact Nonprofits. It was a good read considering the potentially dry topic.
"At a time when the social sector has grown to more than $1 trillion, understanding what leads to impact is essential. Whether you're a non-profit leader, philanthropist, business executive, board member, volunteer, or simply interested in changing the world, this book will inspire you to be a stronger force for good."
