SEM 637 - Managing Not-For-Profit Organizations

★ 3 (fi 6) (either term, 3-0-0) Many management ideas and practices are derived from large, private, for-profit corporations. This course examines some of the issues confronting management in the not-for-profit sector, for example, health, education, charities, social/human services, and the arts. It addresses the issues of to what extent and how management in these types of organizations is different from the dominant private sector view of management, and how these practices are applied in the not for profit sector. Specific issues such as the management of volunteers, boards, and resource development programs are considered.
