Five Organizational Influencers on Emotional Skills

In my ongoing exploration of The Authentic Organization, my most recent thinking has been about the emotional skills of staff and stakeholders and how they are effected by the organizational environment. I propose that there are Five Organizational Influencers on Emotional Skills: recruitment, intake, structure, consequences, and leadership. I would be very grateful for any examples, counterexamples, and critical thinking you could offer. Posted: 12/22/06; 11:44:49 PM #

Network Learning Management Skills Resources

Network Learning has some very impressive resources available online for people doing development work, in both the North and the South. I was particularly impressed with their collection of management guides, which includes How to Build a Good Small NGO (83 pages), Information - Its Collection and Use Throughout the Project Cycle (30 pages), Better Ways to Manage Meetings (18 pages), and Guidelines for Writing Reports.
