Person_Centered_Leadership_For_Nonprofit_Organizations

Person Centered Leadership For Nonprofit Organizations Person Centered Leadership for Nonprofit Organizations “We must do more with less”! This common refrain is heard in organizations throughout the world and nowhere is this statement uttered more frequently than at a non-profit organization. And the less refers to both finances and people. By definition non-profits do more with quite a bit less. What funding sources are available typically provide monies for operation, not administration. This coupled with the high turnover rate of both management and staff means most agencies do not have the luxury of retaining quality employees with the promise of high compensation. So other methods must be found to lead and motivate workers. The tried & true, top down militaristic approach will not work. A kinder, gentler style is required. Lucky for us (and them) such a style exists! Jeanne Plas and Susan Lewis collaborated on person centered leadership and reported their findings in the 2001 Sage published book Person-Centered Leadership for Nonprofit Organizations. And we report our findings on their book in this report.
