Nonprofit Strategic Positioning:Decide Where to Be,Plan What to Do is the first nonprofit-oriented book to describe strategic positioning as an alternative to traditional strategic planning。Even in the nonprofit sector,strategic planning is becoming discredited as a formulaic,go-nowhere exercise。This book will take the reader on a stimulating journey through nonprofit strategy development and implementation。The book is timely because the nonprofit sector has reached a turning point where the need to be more business-like is undeniable,and the continuing retreat of the public sector has left even wider gaps in services that nonprofits will be asked to fill。 Nonprofit Strategic Positioning:Decide Where to Be,Plan What to Do offers a fresh new way for nonprofits to meet the challenges of the 21st century。
These are the defining questions Nonprofit Strategic Positioning: Decide Where to Be,Plan What to Do helps nonprofit organizations answer。A streamlined,practical alternative to traditional, cumbersome strategic planning,the structured strategic positioning process produces a realistic,actionable platform that serves as a clear and engaging basis for the organization’s decisions。

Ways to check the staying power of the organization’s mission statement,such as the Theme Identification Percentage score (TIP), the Business Card Test,the Deli Principle,and more
Easy-to-follow guidelines for scanning the organization’s future, including seven specific strategic factors that affect all nonprofits
The principles of strength-based internal scanning
Creating a strategic financial plan encompassing cash flow,capital structure,and profitability
Tools such as Recipe Cards with step-by-step directions for implementing ideas,a QuickStart version,templates and forms,a list of resources,and more。

The characteristics of an entrepreneurial leader,A guide to help board members and staff develop personal strategic positions。
The strategic positioning approach can be tailored for all nonprofits: federations like United Way and Goodwill Industries; very large nonprofits such as universities and large hospitals;associations and professional societies;and small community organizations。This is inspiring,empowering reading for nonprofit executives and directors,members of boards of directors and trustees,nonprofit managers,fundraising professionals,and consultants who must address the challenges nonprofit organizations face in the twenty-first century。
