Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
Lessons for Non-Profit and Start-Up Leaders: Tales from a Reluctant
CEO uses the experiences of a real company, Community Connections,
to bring to life the practical dilemmas that an organization
founded on a mission and guided by a set of ideals must confront
and solve if it is to thrive. With no business or financial
background, Maxine Harris and her partner Helen Bergman grew a tiny
startup into a $35 million business. Through trial and error, they
learned how to manage finances, hire staff, overcome barriers, and
adapt to changing business models. In Lessons for Non-Profit and
Start-Up Leaders, Harris shares her insights, struggles, and
mistakes with the goal of helping others who may be starting and
running non-profit organizations. She spells out the ways in which
creativity, tenacity, and the power of relationships helped her and
her partner overcome barriers that often cause start-ups to
flounder in their first years of operation. In a humorous and novel
twist, the book engages the reader with a series of original
fables, each tailored to introduce a business dilemma in the
language of "make-believe." Michael O'Leary provides commentary
that places the stories and case studies from Community Connections
into a broader context, making the lessons accessible to anyone
working in the non-profit or startup sector.
