- Unlike normal businesses, money is only an input, not an output, for the social sector
- Performance must be measured relative to mission, not financial returns
- Greatness is an inherently dynamic process, not an end point
- To measure performance, finding the perfect indicator is not what's important, what is important is settling upon a consistent and intelligent method of assessing your put results and then tracking your trajectory with vigor
- Leadership only exists if people follow when they have the freedom not to
- Drew Buscareno, executive director at the Center for the Homeless in South Bend, IN was featured
What I got out of it
- Good read and I think a good way of looking at the social sector - should be judged on different criteria (it's mission rather than finances) but the greatness principles still apply
