The increasing complexity and interdependence of international NGOs has brought to the surface concerns not only about performance but about the structural aspects of NGO management at a practical level in the quest for performance maximization. This brief guidebook offers five different--although complementary--essays that address key questions about NGO management. Topics covered include organizational models, core competencies, NGO organizational structure options, the impact of new IT technologies on performance, and ways to operationalize strategic planning. While directly geared toward NGO management and staff, this book will also be attractive to those thinking of careers in development or potential donors and clients interested in issues of NGO efficiency and performance.

How can the managers, the staff, the board members and CEOs of international NGOs best navigate the strategic changes that are needed so that their organizations can work effectively in today's complex environment? Having focused on the need for those changes in their previous book, Building a Better International NGO, James Crowley and Morgana Ryan now provide a practical, hands-on guide to achieving them. The authors cut through both jargon and platitudes to provide proven tools for leading strategic change-tools that will help INGOs to improve their performance and increase their relevance as they grapple with new realities.
