BUS-3200: Non-Profit Management

There are now well over 1 million nonprofit organizations (NPOs) in the United States, employing over 10 million people, calling upon even more volunteers, and performing functions ranging from promoting art to protecting zebras. This course presents a model of the essential anatomy of successful NPOs. Then, building upon this theoretical framework, three key planning processes are explored which are commonly used by nonprofit executives and board members in leading their organizations effectively. These include board development planning, resource development planning, and overall strategic planning. The course utilizes various methods of instruction, including class discussion, internet research, lectures, reading, student presentations, and writing.
