An Organization Design Model for Nonprofits
Abstract
This article proposes that designers of nonprofit public
service organizations must get outside a two-dimensional paradigm of
effectiveness and efficiency. The strength of the model is the
integration of three parameters, showing how planning, productivity,
and politics run through an organizational system and how these
dimensions can be aligned for greater leverage. The model simplifies
design and diagnosis, allowing managers to initiate change in an
incremental and holistic way. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
