Strategy for Non-Profit Organizations - Online

We hear a lot about for-profit companies, such as Apple Computer or Wal-Mart, and the successful strategies they have developed. Even though non-profit organizations are not concerned with profit maximization, they too can benefit from following a strategy.

A non-profit's strategy constitutes its decisions about what it will do and how it will do it. Managers are critical to successfully implementing strategy since they are responsible for carrying out the actions that will support it. By understanding a non-profit's strategy and how it helps the organization fulfill its mission, a manager can do a better job implementing the strategy.
