Description
This work looks at managing in what is now becoming known as the third sector (that is, non-profit making organizations which are not yet run by the government). Examples would be charities, the Royal Opera, the AA and the Hedgehog Preservation Society. This is an area which has grown rapidly and which, though it represents less than five percent of gross domestic product, is one which wealds a great deal of power and influence.
