Nonprofit Management 101 with Pamela Leland

Date and Time: Sep 21st 2010 - 9:00 am 4:00 pm
Regular Fee: $149 | Member Fee: $119
Description: The "juggler" is an image that is frequently used to describe the role of a nonprofit executive director. A nonprofit CEO needs to manage mission, people, programs and money - not to mention his or her critical relationship to the Board of Directors and other organizational partners and funders. This course will cover the key responsibilities of an executive director and use examples and exercises to build knowledge and skills. You will leave with an understanding of how organizational context and life cycles shape the practice of management; when and how the executive director might serve as leader, facilitator, supporter and/or "do-er;" and be able to identify critical issues within various aspects of management.
