The book is divided into four broad parts. Section I will set the stage with an examination of the Great Recession and its effect on government finance, the loci of economic growth, and the likely economic policy path forward. There will be a number of accompanying charts and graphs. Section II will document economic and industrial structure and performance over the next two decades, domestically and globally. This section will also document future changes in the loci of wealth, in terms of individuals and institutions. Finally, it will quantitatively document implications of generational change, especially as regards the differing ways in which the next generation of corporate leaders will have been educated, and hence will view their leadership. There will be a variety of accompanying charts and graphs. Section III will look at the implications for nonprofits of these changes in terms of engagement, governance, partnership expectations, leadership. Special attention will be given to implications for corporate partnerships and their content and objectives. Charts will be typologies of organizational consequences. Section IV will provide a practical guide to re-structuring the business model of nonprofits to anticipate not react to change. The need is for a business model that is premised on nimbleness and change, where mission does not tie an organization down, but is used to capitalize on change. The book will be a practical guide that teaches readers to identify, choose and track trend indicators in the operating environment (aka market); establish systems to take up and act on both challenges and opportunities surfaced by those indicators, (aka, market reaction and R&D capacity); produce concrete evidence of the impact (internal and programmatic) of paying attention to those indicators; and constantly innovate to adjust funding partnerships, programs, and market innovations to capitalize on anticipated changes. It will also include a profile questionnaire and case studies.
