Like any other organization, nonprofits are subject to an ever-increasing number of risks. This book can best be described as a practical and concise "how to" guide for nonprofits which want to recognize and limit the effect of risk on their operations and increase their chance for success and survival. This book is for the board of directors, executive directors, staff and volunteers of such organizations as well as students of philanthropy. This book covers: 1) many of the most common strategic and operational risks to nonprofits today, 2) examples of what has happened to organizations which ignore the risks facing them, 3) how to identify, prioritize and mitigate nonprofit risk, 4) possible mitigation strategies for a representative sampling of risks, and 5) tips on how to approach insurance as part of risk mitigation. Also included are a sample risk manual that nonprofits can use in launching an enterprise risk management process and myriad other sample tools for managing risk. The authors of Enterprise Risk Management - Straight Talk For Nonprofits have written two other books on ERM that have been read by business leaders and students in many university risk management programs. Now, they have used their numerous combined experiences as volunteers and consultants to nonprofits in writing this new book.
