Financial Leadership for Nonprofit Executives

This book was very helpful, easy to understand, and shared good concepts that could be put to use with ease. I would recommend this!

I selected "Financial Leadership for Nonprofit Executives: Guiding your Organization to Long-term Success" to help prepare our new organization for the future. The book is a nice guide for young nonprofits. Nonprofit leaders, new to their position will gain more security with this book at your fingertips. The Chapter that provided for me the most guidance, is Chapter 4: Financial Planning. I also found Chapter 5: Communicating Progress the most thought provoking.

This is a wonderful resource to our organization. It will be shared with our administrators as well as the Board of Directors.

This book is a very comprehensive resource for folks that want to learn more about how to read and understand nonprofit financials. I have been working in finance and executive leadership for many years and this book was useful for me as a staff person, a board member, and helping others that are looking at our financials.

This is a good intermediate level book on nonprofit finance, complete with practical leadership tips. It is a lot of content to digest if you do not already have a basic understanding of nonprofit finance.

It has helped our corporation and board members understand the financial information that is presented and have clearer oversight over the monthly reports and the yearly budgets.

This book was extremely helpful.

The information i received out of this book is phenomonal and will share with the Board and let them read as well.

A clear presentation of budgeting and financial concepts for non-profit leaders (including program managers). Chock full of great examples to train audiences in reading financial information and telling financial stories. Also provides approaches for assessing programmatic cost effectiveness and spending. A great tool for discussions with leadership or for addressing places where an organization may be stuck.

This book came recommended to me. I appreciate the tools to help get accurate financial data. Also the "Red, Yellow, Green" evaluation relates to my background with lean manufacturing, this provides a quick visual indication of the areas we need to focus on. We have been working over the years to improve our financial data, this book is another step forward on that journey.

Solid financial tips for all nonprofit organizations. Written in plain English. Keep handy on your reference shelf.

I loved this book. It covered the basic steps involved with financial management and formatting in non-profit organizations . I can apply this information for the non-profit that I currently serve.

The book is easy to read and an essential read for those who have all volunteer working boards. Managing the finances for a nonprofit is important for 990's and the future growth of the nonprofit corporation.

This book provides practical suggestions and can be used with 'non-finance' board members to help build their capacity and oversight of the organization.

As the board chair of a 300K nonprofit, I found this book to be more in depth that I needed. As the title states it if for Nonproift Executives and probably larger nonprofits at that. I'm sure the concepts are valid for all nonprofits. It was a little too much for me in my role at our nonprofit.

Very interesting and helpful.
