A Guided Journal for Dynamic Nonprofit Leaders

The Capital Campaign Guide Every Nonprofit Board Member Needs

Leading a nonprofit through a capital campaign can feel overwhelming-especially when you're expected to raise more money than ever before without a clear roadmap for success.

Nonprofit CEOs, development directors, and board members often try to piece things together on their own with generic fundraising guides or by turning to peers (or ChatGPT) for advice. Yet uncertainty remains around setting the wrong goal, losing momentum, or falling short in very public ways.

A Board Member's Guide to Capital Campaign Fundraising removes the fear by explaining step by step how successful capital campaigns actually work. This book offers a clear, practical framework for nonprofit capital campaign planning, board fundraising, and major gift fundraising-without relying on jargon, hype, or outdated myths.

Amy Eisenstein and Sarah Plimpton, nationally recognized experts in nonprofit fundraising and capital campaigns, bring their insights and expertise to help organizations raise game-changing money with confidence, structure, and shared understanding.
Inside, you'll learn how to:
Set realistic capital campaign goals and fundraising plans based on donor capacity, not guesswork
Define clear roles for nonprofit board members so fundraising feels less scary and even enjoyable
Identify and cultivate the right major donors for your campaign without falling into the trap of costly events or broad appeals
Ask for large gifts with confidence-without pressuring friends, family, or fellow board members
Avoid common capital campaign mistakes that stall progress and drain energy



This is the only comprehensive fundraising guide written specifically for nonprofit board members planning a capital campaign. By the end, you'll understand the campaign process as well as how to align your board and move forward with confidence.

If your organization is considering a capital campaign, this book belongs in every board member's hands.

How to Raise Game-Changing Money for Your Nonprofit

A Board Member's Guide to Capital Campaign Fundraising

An unconventional, hands-on guide to turning ideas into products that matter—and that people love—from the legendary Silicon Valley pioneer, founder of Zynga, and creator of Stanford Graduate School of Business’s product management course.Mark Pincus has been at the forefront of each iteration of the internet. He built the original app company ahead of the mobile app economy&nbsp;and sold virtual goods to the masses long before in-app purchase generated $85 billion on smartphones. As the founder of Zynga, he brought us FarmVille, CityVille, and Words with Friends, launching eight hit games and reaching more than a billion users in four years.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Pincus has turned hit-making into a repeatable system, birthing one of his favorite guiding principles that “all new fails”. Life at the Speed of Play is his framework for moving faster and massively increasing your odds of success. His insights and advice are essential in the new world of AI, where&nbsp;speed of testing and learning defines winners.Bursting with wit, wisdom, and a core belief in tech’s endless capacity, each chapter of Life at the Speed of Play contains actionable takeaways based on Pincus’s unorthodox “Mark-isms” including “hire people with broken resumes,” “protect investors from themselves,” and, paradoxically, to “f*** scale” in favor of quality over quantity.What They Don’t Teach You at Harvard Business School for the twenty-first century, here is the essential “bible” for entrepreneurs, product managers, innovators, and anyone who has an idea—digital or analog—that they dream of turning into a reality.

Life at the Speed of Play

Wie entstehen Einsichten? Diese Frage begleitet Helmut Schneider seit Jahrzehnten als Wissenschaftler, Berater, Lehrender und nicht zuletzt als Mensch, der versucht, die Welt ein Stueck besser zu verstehen. In diesem Buch oeffnet er erstmals sein persoenliches Denkarchiv: fuenfzehn Denkprinzipien, entstanden aus Forschung, Erfahrung, Irritation und Neugier. Sie reichen von der Kunst des Perspektivwechsels ueber den Umgang mit Komplexitaet bis hin zu der Frage, warum Verstehen immer auch ein Akt der Demut ist. Jedes Prinzip wird begleitet von einer Anekdote, mal komisch, mal nachdenklich, mal ueberraschend, die zeigt, wie eng Denken und Leben miteinander verwoben sind. Das Ergebnis ist kein Ratgeber und kein Lehrbuch. Es ist eine Einladung, Schneider beim Denken zuzusehen und vielleicht unterwegs ein paar eigene Erkenntnisse zu entdecken.

Managing Aviation Operations

This book offers a comprehensive and management-oriented analysis of sustainability in the aviation industry. It examines aviation's crucial role in global mobility and economic development whilst also critically addressing its environmental, social and regulatory challenges. Readers will benefit by gaining a realistic, analytically sound framework for evaluating sustainability strategies in aviation. The book supports informed decision-making, helps to anticipate regulatory and market developments, and enables readers to better balance economic performance with environmental responsibility and social acceptance in a highly complex and globally interconnected industry.By adopting a holistic ESG perspective, the book integrates environmental impacts such as climate change and noise, social issues including equity, accessibility and labour conditions, and governance aspects like regulation, reporting and stakeholder accountability. Rather than presenting simplified solutions, it highlights trade-offs, uncertainties and long-term path dependencies that shape strategic decision-making in aviation. The structured approach combines conceptual foundations with industry-specific insights, covering regulation, technology, sustainability reporting and strategic management practices.The book is relevant for all managers in the aviation industry, whether they work for airlines, airports, air traffic control organisations, regulatory authorities or political decision-makers. It is particularly important for environmental managers throughout the aviation industry, but also for managers at a senior level, as sustainability is becoming a strategic issue of growing importance. In addition, the book is valuable for students in aviation management programmes as well as for students in related fields such as aeronautical engineering and tourism management.

AN INSTANT&nbsp;NEW YORK TIMES&nbsp;BESTSELLER!If there was a core lie sabotaging your life, wouldn't you want to know what it is? And wouldn't you want to find the way to be free?Most of us have been living inside a lie for so long that it feels like the truth. It has quietly shaped our identity, our relationships, and even how we see God. Until we see it, we'll keep circling the same frustrations, the same shame, the same thoughts of&nbsp;I'll never change.&nbsp;But freedom is possible. At the center of this book is a powerful idea: most of our struggles trace back to one core lie we've unknowingly believed-I'm helpless, I'm worthless, or I'm unlovable.&nbsp;These lies don't just live in our thoughts;&nbsp;they shape our relationships and our everyday choices. What feels like personality or circumstance is often something deeper. This book helps you identify that story, understand how it took root, and replace it with truth so you can experience real, lasting freedom. In&nbsp;The Lie You Don't Know You Believe, Jennie Allen pulls back the curtain on the enemy's oldest trick-and shows you&nbsp;how to dismantle it with the spiritual authority you&nbsp;already have in Christ. She guides you&nbsp;through how to:Spot the three core lies everyone believes-and name the one running your lifeTrace the moment your lie took root and how the enemy has been using it to keep you stuckCut ties with your old narratives so they stop shaping your choicesChallenge lies in real time and replace them with God's truth&nbsp;This isn't about behavior modification. This is about transferring your life out of the enemy's kingdom of lies and into the kingdom of light-where joy, peace, and strength aren't fleeting feelings but your everyday reality.

A practical, start-to-finish guide to securing an internship in the private sector and making the most of the transition from student to professional. Every year, college students across the country seek internships to build experience in their chosen fields. In this highly competitive job market, students and recent graduates need to seek out every possible opportunity to differentiate themselves and demonstrate that they are ready to roll up their sleeves and get to work. One important way to do so is an internship in the private sector, which can lead to a full-time job with a well-regarded organization. Yet the process of finding an internship can appear challenging. This book can make it easier. For more than a decade, finance professional Charles Fishkin has been preparing students to thrive in internship programs. In this book, he shares his advice for those who are seeking a private-sector internship. With insights relevant to a variety of fields--from finance to the tech sector--he covers the process from start to finish, beginning with exploring the range of internship opportunities available. Several chapters offer advice on best practices for crafting effective resumes, networking, and interviewing to get the position. Fishkin offers checklists, action items, real-life scenarios, and practical suggestions, each arising from the experiences of former interns and hiring managers. The heart of the book focuses on the nine to twelve weeks of the internship itself, with tips on how to interact with supervisors and colleagues, how to learn and apply new skills, and how to solve problems and address challenges that arise. Internships in the Private Sector is the first full-length guide to securing and making the most of an internship. This book will help level the playing field, providing students with the tools and support they need to perform to the fullest extent of their abilities and lay the foundation for a strong start to their careers.

Internships in the Private Sector

'What a remarkable book by a unique and extraordinary man. I fell in love with Jason's family, especially the incredible Giff (what a mother, what a woman!) and I cheered at every infuriating brick wall she and Jason smashed down' - Kathy Burke, author of A Mind of My Own'You did it, didn't you, Jason?' Mum asked. 'No, Giff,' I told her. 'We did. We did it . . .'When Jason Arday was thirty-seven years old, everything changed. He made international news by becoming the youngest Black professor in the almost thousand-year history of the University of Cambridge. But that remarkable achievement is only part of his great and unfortunate tale.&nbsp;He grew up in a council house in south London with his parents and two brothers. Diagnosed with autism and global developmental delay at the age of three, he spent much of his non-verbal childhood navigating a system that struggled to understand him. Doctors and teachers believed there was 'no one in there'. But Jason's mother, Giff, refused to accept the limits others placed on her son.&nbsp;With the faith of his family and the support of a handful of extraordinary friends and mentors, Jason slowly found his voice. He spoke his first word at eleven, learned to read at eighteen, and discovered a passion for education and helping others that would transform his life. Along the way there were improbable triumphs and heartbreaking setbacks, tears of joy and moments so painful that laughter was the only option, and more than one occasion when everything seemed poised to fall apart.Great and Unfortunate Things is an unforgettable book about resilience and love - and the transformative power of someone who believes in you when the world does not.

Great and Unfortunate Things

The instant New York Times bestseller. For her entire adult life, Oprah Winfrey has struggled with her weight. She never thought in her lifetime, medicines would provide hope, health, and healing for people like her. But as her conversations with Dr. Ania Jastreboff from the Yale School of Medicine reveal, we've learned that having obesity is not a choice. It's not a question of willpower. Obesity is a disease. It's a question of biology, created by our bodies' need to survive and the environment we created and now live in. And it's treatable. The new medications can lower our body fat set point (our brain's 'Enough Point'), so that we lose weight without battling biology with willpower. Dr. Jastreboff describes strategies to optimise health and manage side effects all with the reassuring perspective of decades of experience treating patients with obesity and leading studies with these medications. Many of her patients say the 'food noise' that plagued them for years has evaporated. They describe a new freedom from intrusive, persistent and disruptive thoughts about food. With treatment they begin a journey of healing with self-compassion, devoid of the shame and blame they've endured from society for decades. Oprah says she's learned so much from Dr. Jastreboff about how, when it comes to weight, our bodies work with us - and also against us. How each of our struggles are different and each of our choices in living with obesity may also be different. Dr. Jastreboff's groundbreaking research offers a new way forward, not only for obesity treatment, but also for overall health, with significant implications for the prevention and reversal of hundreds of related diseases. As she demonstrates in this book, when science meets empathy, real healing becomes possible. Yes, there is a path to healing and leading the life you have always wanted, when your brain is reassured that you have 'enough.'

Oprah Winfrey's journey with weight loss and the unprecedented rise of medication revolutionizing the treatment of obesity.

How the financialization of healthcare has eroded the quality of care, driven up prices, and worsened health inequalities Financial actors and healthcare leaders increasingly view healthcare organizations as financial assets to be bought, sold, and managed for maximum profit, regardless of the effects on patient care. Uncovering how the federal government enables financial opportunism in healthcare, Healthcare in the Age of Finance Capital offers bold ideas for overhauling a failed system. Rosemary Batt and Eileen Appelbaum provide a unique analysis of the financialization of healthcare, a process in which a growing proportion of the healthcare economy is owned and controlled by the financial sector. Healthcare organizations increasingly depend on financial machinations and the earnings derived from them rather than revenue generated from patient care. The extent to which financial calculations overshadow the healthcare mission depends importantly on institutional legacies, reimbursement rules, and the failure of regulatory oversight. Batt and Appelbaum show how differences in regulations and financing rules shape whether financial actors can penetrate distinct healthcare segments—from hospitals, nursing homes, and ambulatory care to physician specialties, home health, hospice, and autism services. Nonprofit healthcare is not immune from this financial logic. Evidence-based, accessible, and informed by real-world examples, Healthcare in the Age of Finance Capital sheds critical light on how financial deregulation coupled with the relaxation of health, tax, antitrust, and labor laws have allowed financially driven actors to exploit public funds for private gain at the expense of healthcare organizations, patients, communities, labor, and taxpayers.
