Counting the Not for Profits

Global Business

Available for over a year

Why are there no really large not for profit organisations? Peter Day hears why from two Harvard Business School professors: Allen Grossman and Robert Kaplan. They argue that the non profit sector needs to adopt many of the features of the marketplace, so efficient organisations can grow, while less efficient ones dwindle, just like companies do.
