Description
The CEO of Do Something explains what big businesses can-and should-learn from not-for-profits. Tough times have forced businesses to slash their headcount, marketing budgets, and other resources. Managers at small start-ups and Fortune 100 companies alike are now expected to do more with less-but how? No one is more qualified to answer that question than the leaders who always thrive on a shoestring. Nancy Lublin, CEO of Do Something and founder of Dress for Success, draws on her experiences as well as interviews with other “rock star” leaders of flourishing not-for- profits to show how to succeed with any size budget, staff, or network. Nancy Lublin is the CEO and “Chief Old Person” of DoSomething.org, which uses technology and pop culture to help young people “rock causes they care about.” Previously, she was founder and CEO of Dress for Success, which she started at age twenty-three. Lublin has won numerous honors and is frequently quoted in the media. She’s a contributing columnist for Fast Company and an adjunct faculty member at New York University and Yale School of Management. She lives with her family in New York City.
