Abstract:

<p> No matter how well an organization is managed, we face some inevitable failures such as deficient volunteers, excess demands for service, unstable grants, etc. Paradoxically however, successful organizations have been using their failures creatively. Beyond such successful use of failure, can benefits of failure be systematically described? What would be the generic ways to benefit from failure? In order to answer that question, three essays were written with the following details. </p><p> Essay 1 is an attempt to explore the ways to systematically describe benefits of failure in genera

Nonprofit organization leaders face increased performance and sustainability challenges due to reduced funding. Approximately 72% of nonprofit revenues required for the sustainability of nonprofit organizations come from program services, which are threatened by ineffective improvement strategies and reduced program funding. Using the conceptual framework of total quality management, the purpose of this multicase study was to explore strategies that nonprofit leaders use to implement successful continuous improvement programs to increase revenue.

Abstract:

<p> High performing employees in the nonprofit sector can gain better compensation, benefits, and incentives by working in the for-profit sector. Employees departing for the for-profit sector decreases the overall talent pool in the nonprofit sector, and removes top talent from nonprofit organizations. Nonprofits require employees who are working at peak performance, as they can typically only afford a reduced headcount due to budgetary restraints. Employees are attracted to positions which afford adequate or above standard levels of compensation. The most talented employees are the most unatt

The holistic, landscape-based approach of Sustainable Forest Management (SFM) in the United States emphasizes the importance of addressing three components of forest management: ecology, community, and economy. Many believe this approach represents an important and positive paradigm shift in natural resource management. In Vermont, as well as many other parts of the United States, parcelized forest ownership presents challenges to the achievement of SFM on private property. These challenges include that of applying concepts of landscape-scale management over a mosaic of small landownerships
