Managing Public and Nonprofit Organizations

Managing Public and Nonprofit Organizations takes a unique approach to public management learning by examining more than 100 high-profile and little-known administrative failure and success stories to explore how failures happen, how they can be prevented, and how to replicate successes in other jurisdictions. Organized to complement a standard public management or organizational behavior text’s structure, and to satisfy NASAPPA accreditation requirements, this book explores both traditional public administration functions and organizational concepts.
