Note from Beth: Last June at the New York City book party for the Networked Nonprofit, Stephanie Strom, New York Times, moderated a discussion on the themes in the book. Vince Stehle asked a great question about how nonprofits might use some of the ideas in the book to engage their networks around Net Neutrality and other public issues. Vince wrote a guest post about Net Neutrality and Networked Nonprofits last month. This month he explores why and how networked nonprofits should rally … [Read more...]

The Networked Nonprofit Board
The last chapter of the Networked Nonprofit is on networked governance. We thought this would be an easy part of the book to write – all we'd have to do is find examples of how boards online, opening up decisionmaking to outside influences.
