How to Manage Conflicts of Interest: A Guide for Nonprofit Boards
 
June 1, 2001
 

Managing conflicts of interest is one of the most important challenges facing nonprofit organizations today. Not only do conflicts pose a threat to an organization’s finances, its performance, and its ability to fulfill its mission, but they also pose a threat - and a very serious one - to an organization’s reputation. Examples abound of nonprofit organizations that have taken years to recover from highly publicized conflict-of-interest problems. Others never recover at all.

Dan Kurtz's book is designed to help nonprofit board members develop a better understanding of conflicts of interest and how to manage them. The book contains a number of helpful case studies, a sample conflict-of-interest policy and a disclosure statement that boards can use as models in addressing this critical issue. Additional sample policies and disclosure statements can be found on a floppy disk that accompanies the book.
