Working Easier: A Toolkit for Staff and Board Members of Nonprofit Arts Organizations

Working easier - and smarter - is all about getting organized. At work, getting organized is much simpler than it's often made out to be. Written by Debra H. Snider, the popular presenter of Working Easier workshops at both the 2003 and 2005 One State conferences, this simple and effective toolkit will walk you through the process of developing an effective organizational design, making it possible - and easier - for your organization to accomplish its goals effectively, efficiently and optimally.

Designed to provide arts management professionals with strategies and tactics to increase productivity, eliminate waste, and build a strong, scalable and adaptable foundation for future operations, Working Easier offers relevant for-profit business know-how and tools relating to organizational design and job satisfaction. The tools and tips included in this book will help to strengthen arts organizations and increase the career appeal of arts management by focusing each staff member on the functions that are most value-added and that she/he most enjoys.

Includes a step-by-step guide to articulating your vision, setting goals, establishing effective and useful processes and building leadership among the ranks, as well as a slew of tips on how to get - and stay - organized. Click here to purchase Working Easier.
