"Libby and Detrick have compiled their extensive knowledge of the real issues that face our nonprofit sector to help students glean important lessons from each case. It is refreshing to have such a tool to assist in the education of our future nonprofit leaders."
-Emma A. Powell, Western Michigan University
Case Studies in Nonprofit Management by Pat Libby and Laura Deitrick consists of original cases that are designed to teach students how to think critically, hone their decision-making skills, and learn to apply leadership and management principles that are essential for any nonprofit professional. These case studies illustrate the multifaceted nature of the nonprofit management sector and bring concepts like nonprofit leadership, risk management, advocacy, and grant making to life. "Libby and Detrick have compiled a rich and interesting set of cases that are sure to inspire thoughtful conversations in any NP management course." -- William A. Brown "The originality of the work is a huge advantage, as is the fact that they are teaching cases that end without a clear, "best" answer. Finally, the inclusion of issues unique to international nonprofits is a welcome addition and one I have not run across in previous texts." -- Doreen Swetkis "Libby and Detrick have compiled their extensive knowledge of the real issues that face our nonprofit sector to help students glean important lessons from each case. It is refreshing to have such a tool to assist in the education of our future nonprofit leaders." -- Emma A. Powell "Students will appreciate learning through these cases, as they serve as a safe place for pre-service students to test out ideas and solutions to real problems, and allow mid-career students an opportunity to reflect on similarities and differences in their own workplaces, all while tying theory to practice." -- Erin K. Nemenoff "This text is an excellent tool to provide students the "critical-thinking" application that is missing from many texts." -- Laurie Taylor-Hamm "Cases in Nonprofit Management -A hands on approach fills a real hole in the nonprofit curriculum. While good texts are increasingly coming to market, there are few supplemental texts and really nothing else that seeks so clearly to facilitate critical thinking and discussion among students." -- Shelly Arsneault "I would have no problem fitting this book into my graduate courses." -- Bonnie Peterson "Having short mini-cases for a broad range of topics that typically get covered in an Introduction to Nonprofit Management class is very useful and fills a long-standing need." -- Stefan Toepler
