Managing Change In Voluntary Organizations by Gann
Talks about how voluntary organizations cope with the demands of change - the 'contract culture', service delivery, the 'professionalization' of the voluntary sector, the 'new managerialism'. This book focuses on the needs of voluntary organizations as they confront the absorption of their provision into mainstream care services.
"..a useful reference for anyone with an interest in running a small voluntary organisation in the 1990s." - Health Service Journal "...there is much useful information in this book and it provides a helpful signpost to the hesitant explorer." - Community Care
