Published: February 27, 2013 / Author: Mendoza College
The business of nonprofits is constantly evolving to keep pace with the
world’s ever-increasing complexity, thereby creating the need for a new type of
leader who can both manage and create positive, sustainable social change.
Individuals can now gain the business, leadership and managerial skills vital
to increasing their own effectiveness with the new Executive Certificate in Transformational Nonprofit Leadership, conveniently
available online from the University of Notre Dame’s Mendoza College of
Business.
This 100 percent online program will
teach professionals how to combine a “servant heart” with a strong
business mind. The program itself is comprised of three eight-week courses: Principles of Leading
Transformational Nonprofits, Leading Nonprofit Boards and Fundraising and Grant Strategies. Professionals will learn
key nonprofit business skills, including leading transformational change for
positive societal impact, managing interpersonal relations between board
members to increase organizational effectiveness, and advocacy skills to
maximize recruitment and fundraising success.
“Those seeking to expand upon their own professional talents or
optimize their nonprofit’s effectiveness often realize they would do well to
gain nonprofit sector specific business and leadership skills,” said Marc
Hardy, Ph.D., the director of Nonprofit Executive Education at Notre Dame.
“By adding this online executive certificate program to our ground-based
nonprofit programs, the Mendoza College of Business offers an excellent
solution to acquiring these skills.”
Notre Dame faculty members with master’s and doctoral-level degrees will
