Synopsis

Our world is facing unparalleled challenges--slow economic growth, declining public and private funding, tight budgets, and rampant uncertainty. In this environment, the work of nonprofit organizations has never been more challenging--or more important.

In No Margin, No Mission, Dr. Carter shows you how to apply leading business practices to grow a thriving nonprofit, even in these tumultuous times.

In the best of times, many nonprofits drift while others find ways to capture their share of donations and gifts, government funding and reimbursements, and market share. Creating a thriving enterprise isn't an accident or a mystery.

In this book, you'll find real world examples and practical methods to ensure your organization obtains needed resources, provides quality services, acquires and develops talent, influences donors, funders and policy makers, and reimagines your enterprise to capture emerging opportunities.

Dr. Carter challenges you to shift your mindset. Rather than measuring success based on Return on Investment (ROI), you will learn to demonstrate your Value on Investment (VOI), showing the community how your organization makes a bigger difference than others. Instead of money made and profits banked, it's about money raised and people served. Articulating VOI is crucial if you want to gain stakeholder engagement and commitment of both time and treasure to achieve your organization's mission.

If you're serious about building your nonprofit's sustainability and resilience, and of learning to measure and manage your VOI, then No Margin, No Mission is essential reading.
