"Preparing Leaders of Nonprofit Organizations is a welcome and worthy successor to the line of pathbreaking books, begun in 1986 with Educating Managers of Nonprofit Organizations, that helped define and establish the field of university education for nonprofit managers and leaders. The distinguished authors in this volume break new ground on multiple fronts including theoretical foundations, teaching methodology, contemporary nonprofit leadership challenges, and the academic context with which nonprofit studies programs contend. A must read for current and future nonprofit scholars and educators and contemporary nonprofit leaders"
Dennis R. Young, Professor Emeritus, Georgia State University and Case Western Reserve University, USA
"Nonprofit studies as a field of study has witnessed a 50 year growth. This edited work provides an excellent overview of the history and current approaches to preparing individuals for contributing and leading in civil society. Brown and Hale have assembled some of the best voices in our field today to guide faculty and administrators to meet contemporary challenges and opportunities in nonprofit/philanthropic education. A must read for the newcomer as well as the experienced educator."
Dwight Burlingame, Indiana University, USA
"As nonprofit education continues to grow around the world, faculty, staff, and administrators are increasingly leading dedicated nonprofit and philanthropy programs in higher ed. Preparing leaders of nonprofit organizations: Contemporary perspectives provides valuable insight into how nonprofit education is changing in response to developments like program accreditation, social trends like public service reform and political polarization, and demands to incorporate critical perspectives and applied learning. It's an important and timely contribution to the state of nonprofit education today."
Elizabeth Dale, Seattle University, USA
"Many books about nonprofit organizations have a management perspective and focus on the day-to-day operation of the organization. Preparing Leaders of Nonprofit Organizations: Contemporary Perspectives takes a different approach. It focuses on taking nonprofit educational programs and hence nonprofit leaders beyond where they currently operate. It presents discussions on topics such as the challenges of international differences, moving beyond two rounds of NACC accreditation, and how to prepare the next generation of nonprofit community leaders. This book will make the serious nonprofit educator or leader reflect critically on what they do."
Norman A. Dolch, Editor-in-Chief, Journal of Nonprofit Education and Leadership
"This seminal book excellently positions itself as a critical overview and practical guidebook on nonprofit management and nonprofit education. Remarkably embracing comparative, global, and interdisciplinary lenses! I strongly recommend this book for instructors' graduate-level course teaching as well as scholars' bricks for theoretical overview. The mosaic pieces of thorough historical reviews and current trend analyses of this book leave the most crucial task to envision and design the future of the field to readers. This book is a must-read for anyone willing to assume this critical role as a transformative leader amid this field's professional management and social movement impulses."
Bok Gyo Jeong, Kean University, USA
"The field of philanthropic and nonprofit studies has evolved over the last few decades to establish a foothold in the academic world informing research agendas and contributing to an array of academic programs. This volume documents that progress and lays the foundation for further development as the field becomes contested, blurred, and transformed reflecting the dynamics across the sectors. For those who are new to the field, it provides an important context and perspective. And, for those who have been part of the journey, it provides an opportunity to reflect on accomplishments and chart new directions."
