Creating a New, Networked Mindset

“Social sector leaders are using Web 2.0 tools, but these tools are only the beginning of the story. The deeper news is how social media tools are engendering a new, networked mindset characterized by openness, transparency, decentralized decision-making, and distributed action. Nonprofit organizations that are adapting the networked mindset are finding exciting opportunities to expand their leverage and impact. In this talk from the recent Nonprofit Management Institute, Heather McLeod Grant uses new research from the Monitor Institute, in partnership with the Packard Foundation, to offer a strategic framework that helps nonprofit leaders assess the effectiveness of their networks. She also shares illuminating case studies of nonprofits’ experiences operating with the new networked mindset.” —Stanford Social Innovation Review (SSIR)
