Long description:
At a time of rapid social, economic, and organizational change, community benefit organizations (CBO) have a nearly unprecedented need for managers and leaders who are not just ethical and mission-centric, but also competent-managers and leaders who have the whole picture of the CBO landscape and the skills to efficiently and effectively guide it in its mission, increase value, and achieve lasting impact.

This book provides readers with a roadmap for moving up in an organization and a handbook for how to develop as a competent manager and leader.

John Tropman's new Supervision, Management, and Leadership is a critically important resource both for those new to human service leadership and management as well as for seasoned professionals challenged with a rapidly changing political, fiscal, and organizational environment."
