Event Details

Join NTEN and the fabulous authors of The Networked Nonprofit (Jossey Bass, July 2010), Beth Kanter and Allison Fine for an engaging hour to get the inside scoop on the book called a "A Must Read for Nonprofits Engaging in Social Media".

Beth and Allison are transforming the way nonprofits work and in the book define a Networked Nonprofit as follows:

Networked Nonprofits are simple and transparent organizations. They are easy for outsiders to get in and insiders to get out. Nonprofits don’t work harder or longer than other organizations, they work differently. They engage in conversations with people beyond their walls – lots of conversations – to build relationships that spread their work through the network.

The Networked Nonprofit enables nonprofits to overcome their fears of losing control and evolve to meet the informational and cultural needs of today's donor and volunteer. The book offers a set of guiding principles to help nonprofit leaders navigate the transition from top-down institutions to a networked approach, enabled by social media. The Networked Nonprofit offers specific strategies for implementation, exercises, how-tos, and secrets to success, drawing on in-depth interviews with current nonprofit managers that have used new social media tools effectively.
