Abstract

The genesis of this Special Issue was a conference on “Delivering Social Good: Managing Projects in the Non-Profit Sector” held at the University of Limerick in October 2014.  The diversity that exists within the broad non-profit sector became apparent at this event, as did its increasing projectification and the variety of organizational forms and models resulting from this trend. Tools, techniques, processes and practices inherited from the business world were described, as were methodologies adopted, adapted and specifically designed for work in areas like international development, humanitarian work and community settings. Insights into the lived experiences of project managers in the non-profit sector were also shared, as were a number of diverse conceptualisations of temporary organisations.
嘉宾评论:重振项目管理研究与实践:来自非营利部门的视角
本期特刊的起源是2014年10月在利默里克大学举行的“交付社会公益:非营利部门项目管理”会议。在这次活动中,广泛的非营利部门内部存在的多样性变得显而易见,这一趋势所导致的组织形式和模式的多样性也越来越多。介绍了从商业界继承下来的工具、技术、过程和做法,以及为国际发展、人道主义工作和社区环境等领域的工作采用、调整和专门设计的方法。我们还分享了对非营利部门项目经理的生活经验的见解,以及临时组织的一些不同概念。
