My New Book on Generation Change Is Available!
gencoverGenerations: The Challenge of a Lifetime for Your Nonprofit, is available for review and purchase at the Fieldstone Alliance website. I'm really excited about the reaction to this book, and I know that the issues covered in it are affecting your nonprofit and will continue to in the coming years. Check it out.
Here's what people are saying about the book:

“Helpful ideas for immediate action! Great insight into the different generations in a practical way that lends itself to clear thinking about how to most effectively engage people. Easy to understand and engaging—a pleasure to read.”
—Janet Froetscher, President and Chief Executive Officer, United Way of Metropolitan Chicago:

“An invaluable guide—it will be a frequently consulted resource. Brinckerhoff’s ‘Six Big Actions’ provide an excellent operational framework to plan for generational change.”
—Joan M. Twiss, M.A., Executive Director, Center for Civic Partnerships, Sacramento, CA

Take a moment and check out the book--I think you'll see that it applies to your organization.
