Produktbeschreibung

Written for practitioners and students alike, this book presents instructional case studies in non-profit management. Each chapter is a separate real-life case study that presents the organizational structure, an issue and its outcome, and a perspective on prevention, possible alternate resolution, and lessons learned. Starting with an overview of nonprofit organization and concepts, the case studies are then organized in sections by issue, including public relations, mismanagement of funds and embezzlement, criminal acts, illegal business transactions and financial fraud, bribery, election fraud, and government criminal actions against nonprofits.
