The NPO Dilemma

Non-Profit Organizations (NPOs) are special. They are not the private sector or the public sector. They are a unique blend of the best and worst of both. There are 160000 NPOs in Canada employing 11%% of the workforce. They range from very small to very large and cover a diverse group of non-governmental organizations (NGOs) para-public agencies professional associations lobby groups foundations institutes and charities. This book addresses the multiple Human Resources and Organizational dilemmas facing NPO's. It covers both the theory behind a wide range of HR disciplines as well as the front- line experiences (war stories) of the McConnell HR Consulting firm in resolving NPO issues.
