Introducing Your Nonprofit Organization
Educate us about what your organization does. After learning more about them/or working with them in person, were you able to get a realistic picture of the organization?
Explain both its strengths and weaknesses, and both its opportunities and threats how you saw them through your experience.
2. Applying the concepts and theories learnt in the course, demonstrate how this organisation fits in the overall picture of the nonprofit sector in the U.S., and identify relevant issues, challenges and debates with respect to nonprofit management in this particular organization and for the nonprofit sector more generally.
3. Reflecting on the required readings of this module, elaborate (1) whether you think that the staff of your selected organization experience any emotional labor at work (See Remington’s article), (2) what types of HR strategies the organization applies to manage volunteers and their experience (See Einolf’s article)? (hint: in case you think that your organization does not have any volunteers, think about the Board of the Directors. These guys are not paid, and thus volunteer, right?)
4. Convey the importance of the work done by the organization.
