Over the last 20 years, the number of professional managers
displaced from US corporate jobs has increased dramatically. This
has coincided with the rapid expansion of employment in the US
nonprofit sector; a sector that has a high proportion of managerial
and professional workers among its employees. Workforce Transitions
from the Profit to the Nonprofit Sector examines the career
sequences of dislocated white-collar corporate managers who want to
move to the nonprofit sector. It highlights the managers'
motivations, the structural barriers which prevented them from
making the transition, and the methods of penetrating the barriers.
It uncovers the reasons why some corporate managers are able to
make the transition and why others do not. Finally, it presents the
methods of adaptation that were utilized in their new environments.
This volume will be of interest to human resource managers in the
profit and nonprofit sectors, sociologists, occupational
researchers, and organizational psychologists.
