Purchase options and add-ons

Now in its Third Edition, Effectively Managing Human Service Organizations continues to provide invaluable advice for achieving managerial success. Ralph Brody dissects and diagnoses common workplace dilemmas, arming practicing managers with the skills to implement positive changes in their organizations.

While retaining much of the valuable information from the previous editions, the Third Edition adds up-to-date information and ideas to chapters on developing leadership, planning strategically, solving organizational problems, addressing challenging employee situations, monitoring financial statements, improving internal and external communications, and obtaining funding from private foundations.

New to this edition are topics that will make managers even more effective: designing service delivery programmes, marketing consumer services, promoting organizational change, developing volunteer programmes, and seeking governmental funding. An additional chapter on resource development includes discussion of electronic philanthropy and developing a business plan. The new edition also provides useful Web sites for keeping current on management and fund-raising developments.

Effectively Managing Human Service Organizations, Third Edition is an excellent resource book for executive directors, middle managers, line supervisors, and graduate students who aspire to work in these roles. It provides both a conceptual framework and essential skills managers need to make their organizations more effective. Easy to read, the book contains hundreds of real-life examples and specific guidance in developing skills necessary to manage large and small organizations.

Product description

About the Author

Ralph Brody, Ph.D. passed away on February 8, 2006. Dr. Brody was previously on the faculty of Cleveland State University where he taught social policy and human service administration. He also taught graduate courses on human service delivery models at Case Western Reserve University. Previously, he served for fifteen years as the executive director of the Federation for Community Planning, an organization that provides research, planning and advocacy on health and human services. Dr. Brody authored books on case management, the state legislative process, fundraising events, community problem solving, service learning, and macro practice. Dr. Brody’s many years as a manager and teacher convinced him that the issues facing those in human service organizations were universal and applied to boards of directors as well as NGOs. He dedicated himself to developing tools to enhance the understanding and skills of those in leadership roles, from Cleveland to India, Spain, Ghana, Ethiopia, Egypt and Nigeria.  His frequent workshops in Kenya led to the translation of his casebook into the Swahili language. His co-authored book with Dr. Nair: Grassroot Development – Establishing Successful Microenterprises has been published in English and Malayalam language. Dr. Brody’s work touched millions, and his contributions will continue to educate, inform and inspire future students and professionals in human services field.

Needed this book for my Hums class and upon reviewing the book when it arrived it was easy to read not too dry or boring and very informative. No diagrams/pics in book but still a great text. Will not be selling this back.
