Want to Change Sectors? Pay Attention to These Ten Lessons!
The typical Sector Switcher story you
hear or read about in the media usually has the ring of
a fairytale. Some unseen HR Director waves a magic
wand and our disgruntled, underappreciated and
unattractive C-level executive of a Fortune 500
Company is transformed into the white-horse-riding
savior of a Misfortune 500 Nonprofit.
I'm not saying it can't happen that
way, but the successful Sector Switcher stories I hear
usually share three common ingredients: passion,
commitment, and persistence. Without all three, it's
very difficult to achieve the personal success and
fulfillment that most Sector Switchers tell me they are
seeking.

What We're Reading
This month we're reading Billions of Drops in Millions of Buckets: Why
Philanthropy Doesn't Advance Social Progress, by
Steven Goldberg.
In his book, Goldberg explains how the U.S. nonprofit capital market indiscriminately fragments more than $300 billion yearly among 2 million nonprofits without any information about which organizations can make the best use of the funding. The result is donations and grants that are simply too small to produce meaningful social impact. The book shows how performance-based philanthropy can produce nonprofit growth capital to move the needle of social progress. An interesting, thought-provoking book for anyone on either side of the grantmaking process, we encourage you to read it today.
