In simple terms, they must assess: where they are now, where they want to be in the future, how they plan to get there, and who will have to do what by when.

It is the first of twelve very important questions your organization should consider carefully. To help your team with planning, they should first answer the last eleven questions. These pertain to all the key elements underlying your organization's purpose and operations. They will get to the heart of why a plan is needed to meet customer requirements and your own objectives. This book will introduce and discuss those eleven questions and then rigorously walk you through the sequential and logical steps of a strategic planning process. It will guide your organization in how to think strategically in all aspects of the work you are doing for your consumers or clients. It will show you how to use that thinking in developing and implementing a meaningful and dynamic plan for achieving all your objectives.</p>

Patricia Paris' second novel, The Spiritual Side of Sarah, is a compelling story of a southern woman who learns very early in life just how easy it is to get what she wants. Sarah ventures into courtship and marriage in much the same way that the spider weaves its web and her extraordinary journey into fundamentalism allows the reader to see a side of the Deep South rarely seen by mainstream America. Readers will find Sarah conniving, compelling, and wanton. Set in the 40's and 50's, The Spiritual Side of Sarah is a 'must read' for the nostalgic and those who like books about towns in the old South and the people who lived in them.

<p>Authentic Leadership is the skill most needed in the majority of boards of directors of nonprofit organizations, trade associations, religious organizations, and churches, school boards, and other organizations where board members serve in a non-paid position. The Courage to Lead is a hands on, practical leadership guide for thousands of dedicated individuals who have been selected, elected, or have otherwise volunteered their time to serve on a non-corporate board of directors. As this guide is being written, Americans are waiting for the next shoe to drop on what has been a time of corporate, governmental, nonprofit, and religious scandals. These events have revealed incredible lapses of judgment, leadership at its worst, and even criminal behavior in several respected institutions. Constituents, members, and donors expect their leaders to be accountable. To be selected or elected to a board of directors is a high honor. As "trustees," the board is both servant to and leader of the membership, community, or constituency. While Boards must collectively work together to achieve organizational goals and objectives, it is the individual member's responsibility to continually increase his or her personal leadership capacity. It is the author's intent to provide those who have unselfishly donated their time to causes they believe in with ideas and principles that can help them become more effective servant leaders.</p>
