Publisher's Synopsis
Lessons Learned is the definitive handbook for starting or growing a successful nonprofit organization. This reference guide helps its readers avoid the most common mistakes that any new nonprofit leader will face. Author Paul Isenberg brings uncommon insight into these mistakes, in part because he made many of them in the early days of starting and running Bringing Hope Home, a charitable organization that delivers hope to Families with cancer through financial and emotional support.
Alongside the stories of those mistakes, Paul provides real-world examples and tried-and-true strategies that will help you get it right the first time. Coupled with the key lessons in each chapter, you'll be able to steer clear of the pitfalls, develop a more stable and sustainable organization from top to bottom, and get down to doing what you do best: helping others.
