organizations include the need for good leaders who also possess the ability to manage and lead a team with vi‐ sion, skill, and su�cient resources to accomplish the strategic goals identi�ed by the agency. Setting realistic goals that are complex enough to challenge employees, but not so complex that they cannot show results, is also an issue. Using diversity so that all perspectives can be taken into consideration and �nding people good at plan‐ ning, organizing, guiding, and motivating others are keys to organizational success (McNamara, 2007). It is also necessary to have networks in place so that administra‐ tors can seek the funds and investments needed to run a successful business. Seeking and receiving advice from experts outside of the agency is important, as well as re‐ alizing that all services, in the case of nonpro�t agencies, are not going to have an immediate impact, just as all products made by for-pro�ts are not going to be success‐ ful (McNamara, 2007). Basically, nonpro�t and for-pro�t agencies have just as many similarities as they do di�er‐ ences. The most important di�erence to focus on is the size of the organization. “Small nonpro�ts are often much more similar to small for-pro�ts than to large non‐ pro�ts. Similarly, large nonpro�ts are often more similar to large for-pro�ts than small nonpro�ts” (McNamara, 2007, no page).
