"Dennis has written a practical approach to an issue that plagues so many organizations. The Power of Strategic Alignment is important for any corporation but it is an absolute imperative for a non-profit organization. There is such a temptation to "follow the money." Additionally, there are so many needs in the world that can easily distract good-hearted people and cause organizations to splinter in various directions." David Williams, President and Chief Executive Officer Make-A-Wish(r) America "Any organization's impact depends on strong leaders and not just the CEO. The Power of Strategic Alignment helps senior leaders harness the power of your non-profits' strategy to achieve even more for those you serve." Carolyn S. Miles, President & Chief Executive Save the Children "This is a must-read book for nonprofit CEOs and board members that highlight the importance of communication and developing an organization's leaders, strategies and goals to be successful. The book really illustrates the key elements to make things happen and getting positive results." Jonathan R. Pearson, Executive Director, Corporate Philanthropy and Community Affairs Horizon Blue Cross Blue Shield of New Jersey "Drawing on his rich experience as the CEO and now as a highly regarded nonprofit strategic advisor, Dennis Miller provides the reader with a succinct yet comprehensive formula for nonprofit organization leaders and boards to maximize their effectiveness and success. He stresses how an organization, in order to have a successful strategic plan, must have a clear and compelling vision; have completed a comprehensive assessment of key strengths and critical weaknesses; possess a comprehensive funding plan; and complete a detailed plan for implementation and execution. I urge senior executives and board leaders of nonprofit organizations to read this book." Charles M. Dombeck, Chairman National Institute for People with Disabilities in New Jers

"Anybody who manages or sits on the board of a nonprofit organization will find great insight in this book on the four pillars of leadership." John McIlquham, President, NPT Publishing Group, Inc. Does your nonprofit organization suffer from a "non-profit mentality?" Are you too preoccupied with daily challenges to focus on your mission, build your vision, nurture relationships with constituents, and - last but not least - create a positive operating margin? Dennis C. Miller has solutions for nonprofit organizations that know they must up their game in a world where they are competing with profit-driven institutions for limited talent and resources. Miller brings the nonprofit sector squarely into the 21st century and points the way forward, showing those who run or work for nonprofits: Why much more emphasis should be placed on training and on rewarding high performing employees. How all nonprofits must periodically reevaluate their mission - to see if it is ambitious enough or perhaps too ambitious. Why measuring and then communicating success can enhance fundraising. How establishing your "brand" is as crucial for nonprofits as it is for the Fortune 500. Why you must think of your organization as if it had a "stock price" that can rise or fall. Often, people don't realize the potential for taking their nonprofit organization to new heights. But by the end of reading Miller's guide they will learn to soar. They will be able to create a more positive image and a greater demand for their services, have more people wanting to become employees, board members and volunteers, achieve recognition for excellence in their field, and see an increase in donors and dollars.

The Non-Profit Therapist is a must-read for any non-profit board member or CEO. Dennis' book contains numerous nuggets of wisdom that would assist any non-profit organization. The suggestions are practical and easy to implement. If your organization is experiencing issues around good governance and leadership, make the time to read this book.
