Taylor & Francis Ltd Philanthropic Foundations in International
Book SynopsisThis book focuses on the influence of philanthropic foundations in global development, and on how the global south has engaged with them. The idea of corporate philanthropy stretches back a long way, with the late 19th industrialist Andrew Carnegie seeing it as an important obligation of the very wealthy. In the modern day, Bill Gates has taken up this call, suggesting that the very wealthy should donate half their wealth to philanthropic causes, and endowing his own foundation with something in the order of $50 billion. This book brings together case studies of the most influential of these foundations over the last one hundred years: the Rockefeller, Ford, and Gates'' Foundations, investigating their impact on education and research, health and agriculture. The book concludes by asking whether global south foundations such as Al Waleed Philanthropies, Tata Trusts, and those from China may point to the future of global philanthropic foundations. The sheer scale of resTrade Review"A refreshing and fascinating study of the power, politics and influence of global foundations on international development policy and practice. From the Gates Foundation to the Al Waleed philanthropies of Saudia Arabia, Kilby skilfully unravels the implications for global stability and change in a post-Covid world. A `must read’ for development studies, international relations, politics and public health researchers." -- Jude Howell, Professor of International Development, LSE, UK"Love or loathe them, the influence of massively wealthy foundations set up by wealthy entrepreneurs has had a profound effect on development affairs. This highly readable account provides an important introduction to some of the oldest and largest foundations, and explores the context in which the newer arrivals will wield their influence." -- Dan Brockington, Professor and Director of SIID, University of Sheffield, UK"For over a hundred years, large American private foundations – especially Rockefeller, Ford, and Gates – have shaped and inspired philanthropy and catalysed opposition to it. Patrick Kilby has written an indispensable history and important analysis of the role that the Rockefeller, Ford and Gates foundations have played in international development and national life. As we transition to a new era of increased philanthropic competition, diversity, and innovation, we are grateful to Dr. Kilby for illuminating this history and pointing the way to the paths of conflict and progress ahead for organized philanthropy." -- Mark Sidel, Doyle-Bascom Professor of Law and Public Affairs, University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA"Patrick Kilby’s study of philanthrocapitalism reveals that foundations such as Rockefeller, Ford and Gates are not minor adjuncts to state-dominated international aid and development policy, but major players and influencers in their own right. Kilby has managed to untangle the complex mixture of self-interest, altruism, ideology and the will to power that have shaped the work of these foundations, as well as the ambiguous impacts of their activities on the often poor, vulnerable and marginalised people they have been intended to help." -- Frank Bongiorno, Professor of History, The Australian National UniversityTable of Contents1.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Employment Relations in the Voluntary Sector
Book SynopsisThis new book addresses the topical issues surrounding employment relations in UK voluntary organizations that operate within the quasi-market of social care. Combining an analysis of the established literature with in-depth qualitative field work, Ian Cunningham explores the nature of power relations between state and voluntary sector; implications of employment policy and subsequent pressures for change in pay and working conditions; the influence of trade unions in the sector; management's capacity to resist external pressure and employee responses to this environment. Cunningham's focus on the employment relationship in this sector is unique, highlighting a complex and variable pattern of interdependence and subordination between government agencies and voluntary sector employers. The author examines the way in which financial pressures from the state coupled with weak unionization diminish working conditions, arguing that employee morale will not be sustained if tTable of Contents1.

Taylor & Francis Ltd Internal Evaluation in NonProfit Organisations
Book SynopsisFocused on the interpersonal aspects of internal evaluation in non-profit organisations, this book presents practice-based discussions centred on six key topics identified through the authors' experience as evaluation practitioners. Internal Evaluation in Non-Profit Organisations: Practitioner Perspectives on Theory, Research, and Practice is not a step-by-step how-to guide; instead, each chapter unpacks an aspect of internal evaluation in non-profits that is paid insufficient heed in the existing literature. Written by and for internal evaluation practitioners, the book contains a plethora of practical strategies and critical analysis of thought-provoking topics that are of particular interest and importance to internal evaluators in non-profit settings. The authors understand the pressures facing practitioners and non-profit organisations and share their insights around improving evaluation's ability to be efficient, embedded, useful, and meaningful. This bookTrade Review"The co-authors--two incredibly thoughtful internal evaluators--present an extensive set of practical ideas to enhance evaluation practice in non-profit organizations. Building on their own practice and on an understanding of the scholarly literature that grounds internal evaluation, they have produced a highly usable guide that will enable other evaluators to build evaluation capacity both for themselves and for their organizations. I am eager to use this book in my own work." Jean A. King, Professor Emerita, Department of Organizational Leadership, Policy, and Development/Minnesota Evaluation Studies Institute, USA"In an era where internal evaluation is gaining unprecedented relevance in non-profit organisations, this guide addresses a niche yet important topic, notably understated in evaluation literature." Auzan Rama Satria, Faculty of Psychology, University of Indonesia; International Society for Third-Sector ResearchChapter Endorsements"It felt really nice to be reading something that speaks so directly to where I am at in the early stages of my evaluation journey. It has given me some useful food for thought." Kate Baker, Evaluation Project Manager, HealthWest (Chapter 2)"These uniquely practical guidelines and reflections are essential to read" Phyo Pyae Thida (Sophia) Htwe, Community Development Evaluator, GraceWorks Myanmar (Chapter 2)"What a complete joy to read this!" Yoland Wadsworth, Professor (Hon), RMIT University, Australia, and author of the best-selling Everyday Evaluation on the Run"The content shows the value of combining research, theory and practice, and the importance of NGOs actively contributing to global understandings by sharing knowledge through publications. Genius!" Stephanie Harrison, Evaluation Consultant, Pandanus Evaluation (Chapter 5)"I was actually quite inspired to use theory more in my work after reading it!" Catherine Malla, Knowledge Management Advisor, The Fred Hollows Foundation (Chapter 5)"This chapter addresses an important topic – the need for all evaluators, not just internal evaluators working in the NFP sector, to do much better at integrating theory/research with practice when planning, conducting and using evaluations." Brad Astbury, Director, ARTD Consultants (Chapter 5)"This is a great practical resource with valuable lessons learnt for guiding how external and internal evaluators can combine their expertise together to conduct evaluations in non-profits." Kathryn Dinh, Director, Lotus Evaluation (Chapter 6)"A practical and useful guide on how to think about utilisation and apply this to data collection and evaluations. Working in M&E in a large organisation with varying knowledge and skills around evaluation utilisation, I found this incredibly helpful!" Lauren Lombardi, National Monitoring and Evaluation Lead, Emergency Services, Australian Red Cross (Chapter 7)"I think I've had an epiphany! This was so well written, enjoyable and reaffirming." Marcia Nawar, Program Quality State Lead (NSW/ACT), Australian Red Cross (Chapter 7)Table of Contents1. Internal evaluators: An influential position 2.

Taylor & Francis Strategic FUEL for Nonprofits
Book SynopsisMost nonprofits approach strategic planning in ways that take too much time and effort, focus on the wrong issues, and set up the plan to be something that gathers dust on a shelf rather than being implemented. If you want a different approach, this is the book for you.This book shows nonprofit leaders and organizations how to conduct strategic planning processes that deliver both a great strategy and an organization that can drive strategic change and continually refresh its strategy. It introduces a new frameworkâStrategic FUELâand shows leaders how to map their organizationâs strategic situation to a planning approach that addresses the most important opportunities and challenges, without wasting time and effort. It also shows the actions leaders can take during strategic planning to increase the odds of successful strategy implementation.

Taylor & Francis The ABCs of NotForProfit Accounting and
Book SynopsisWritten in non-complicated prose and reducing complex rules to easily understandable concepts, this book offers a fundamental understanding of how not-for-profit (NFP) organizations are formed, their structure, and the unique accounting and reporting issues they face. In the United States, the NFP sector accounts for just over 10 percent of all private sector workers, and NFPs must comply with hundreds of rules imposed by the IRS, federal and state government agencies, foundations, and even donors. Yet there is a dearth of informative guidance, and a shortage of knowledgeable bookkeepers and accountants who understand the nuances of NFP accounting and financial reporting. Neither overly technical nor complex, this comprehensive and easy-to-read practical guide provides desperately needed information to a wide range of NFP stakeholders such as those who handle the bookkeeping and accounting functions, manage an NFP organization, provide funds or services to NFPs, or regulate N
