Description: Changing by Design offers a proactive approach to both designing and implementing change initiatives within nonprofit organizations. By addressing three key areas - coordinated leadership on the part of the chief executive and the board, creative innovation in deciding what needs to change and how to change it, and effective implementation of new ideas and programs - this book presents a balanced, comprehensive model for successfully managing change in today's nonprofit.

Illustrated by real-life case studies, Changing by Design shows how to design and manage a change plan - from initial analysis through implementation, partner effectively with the board in leading change, encourage and unleash creativity and innovation in developing change initiatives, effectively involve staff in designing and implementing change, protect change initiatives from becoming sidetracked by day-to-day pressures, and recognize and deal with barriers to change.
