Want to raise more money for your nonprofit? Then get ready to change the way you do your fund development. Now more than ever, your organization has to be relevant to the community. And this book tells you how to design and facilitate a strategic planning process to assure that you are relevant. Fund development is not just about fundraising techniques. The most effective fund development focuses on organizational development first and foremost. Organizational performance depends upon shared values and participatory decision-making. You need to apply the best thinking from experts like Peter Drucker and Peter Senge, Dee Hock and John Gardner to the way your organization does it work. This groundbreaking book - now in its second edition - offers important insights, critical strategies, and useful tools to enhance your organization's performance and raise more charitable contributions. Joyaux challenges the fundraising profession to focus on organizational development rather than merely promoting fundraising technicians. Joyaux integrates staff work with that of volunteers and demands a basic change in the way we do business.
