Stanford Social Innovation Review : Articles : Ten Nonprofit Funding Models (March 16, 2009)

10 nonpforit funding biz-models: various strategic approches towards operational sustainability. This links really well to the harvard business review (HBR) practical table that outlined: strategy, business model, tactics, values. I have put a floating bubble on the page with the link to the HBR document. Donwloadable as A PDF.

  • For-profit executives use business models—such as “low-cost provider” or “the razor and the razor blade"—as a shorthand way to describe and understand the way companies are built and sustained. Nonprofit executives, to their detriment, are not as explicit about their funding models and have not had an equivalent lexicon—until now. 
  • When a person says that a company is a “low-cost provider” or a “fast follower,” the main outlines of how that company operates are pretty clear. Similarly, stating that a company is using “the razor and the razor blade” model describes a type of ongoing customer relationship that applies far beyond shaving products.

  • "In this scrambled up world of work there are no rules and few walls. And that means the key to business success is totally up for negotiation.


    It’s time to rethink the best skills to have in any executive or entrepreneur’s toolbox. Forget an MBA from a flash business school, a talent for spreadsheets, or an aptitude for social networking. Think Juggle!"

ChangeThis :: Don’t Script, Improvise!

in a networked environment where good ideas come as much as from your connections as from your staff - improvisation will help & release stress & creativity! check out the free pdf article. Links nicely with Visual doc I shared.

  • "Businesses built to operate in the Networked World are as different from the Industrial Age models as a computer is from a multi-plane camera. Networked organizations are more biological than industrial. They resemble their employees more than their employees resemble them. They are highly adaptive, mobile, open, sensitive to their environment, and ultra-responsive. They continuously evolve, nurtured by a steady stream of intelligent input from inside and outside the organization.


    In a networked organization, where good ideas originate is not half as important as how–-and how frequently—those good ideas become reality. Good managers don’t try to control their brand’s narrative but, rather, to foster an environment in which it can be liberated, expanded and unleashed across networks. The emphasis is not on following a script, but on improvisation."

ChangeThis :: Learning to View Your Customers as a s connected - than Powerful Tribe

"As a business it’s tempting to think of a 'tribe' as a 'customer base.' That’s wrong. People aren’t part of a tribe simply because they buy a product or service. What qualifies them as a tribe are their connections. Tribes of customers are connected to an idea, each other, products, services, employees, etc.—creating a network of connections to the business as a whole."
