Non-profit organisations play a significant role in helping to build a more caring and inclusive Singapore. Organisations in the non-profit sector span over diverse mission and purpose from advancing education, community development, environmental protection, arts and culture, promotion of health and well-being, relief of poverty, and more. For these organisations, navigating the landscape of funders and grantmakers across the public and private sectors is complex and competitive. Against a backdrop of sociodemographic shifts and technological advancement, there is the ongoing quest to stay relevant.This book aims to address the distinctive management challenges of non-profits in Singapore. It draws on the context of this island city-state to discuss strategies and management frameworks that will enable leaders and managers in non-profit organisations to more effectively achieve social impact amidst internal organisational issues and an evolving external landscape.

An increasing proportion of the world's poor is dependent on NGOs for the support the state cannot or will not provide, but little has been written to analyze or guide best management practice, which is so critical to their success. Managing for Change addresses the key operational issues facing NGO managers, drawing lessons from the reality of southern NGOs. It explores areas such as the formation of strategy, effective NGO leadership, the handling of donor relations, staff motivation and development, and the management styles most appropriate to crises and change.
