Praise for Joan Garry’s Guide to Nonprofit Leadership
“WOW! I giggled, I pondered, I smiled, I nodded! Awesome! I share Joan's belief that nonprofits can change the world and she has given us the book that will make that happen! What's more, thanks to the way it is written, we'll be smiling as we learn!”
—Caryl Stern, President & CEO,
Executive Director, Walton Family Foundation
“Joan has written a powerful, must‐read book for nonprofit leaders. Her experience and compassion will motivate you in your journey to ‘experiment your way to success.' Filled with good humor and free of jargon, this book provides readers with valuable lessons from one of the country's most skilled leadership coaches.”
—Vikki Spruill, President & CEO,
New England Aquarium
“As an instructor here at The Annenberg School, Joan has proven herself to be a joyful and inspiring educator, igniting student interest in the power of nonprofit communications. How fitting that she has invested time in sharing that joy and inspiration in Joan Garry's Guide to Nonprofit Leadership. Among the qualities that make for an effective nonprofit leader, writes Joan, are boldness, joy, a good sense of humor, and the ability to tell a good story. Not coincidentally, these same attributes describe her book perfectly. The arguments and advice are bold and illustrated by a range of engaging and personal stories drawn from her career as one of the nation's most influential nonprofit leaders.”
—Michael X. Delli Carpini,
former Dean, The Annenberg School
for Communication, University of Pennsylvania
“When Joan Garry says messy, she really means messy! This book pulls no punches! It's a tell‐all expose of the 501c‐3 underbelly, a guide from the inside for anyone involved, or thinking of becoming involved, with a non‐profit organization. What's a bigger surprise though, is the wit and heart and passion on every page, and the spirit of kindness that comes from someone truly passing on wisdom.”
—Alan Cumming, Celebrity
“As an overworked nonprofit ED with one eye twitching due to cash‐flow issues, I am always skeptical of people claiming to be ‘experts' about nonprofit leadership. Joan, however, proves to be not only an authority on our work, but also no‐nonsense, down‐to‐earth, and hilarious. This book is chock‐full of helpful stories and concrete recommendations, delivered in Joan's usual engaging conversational tone, sprinkled with jokes and witticisms. You feel like you're venting with a wise and caring friend at happy hour. There is great advice here for new as well as experienced nonprofit leaders.”
