Organizing for Change II: Moving Toward Organization Transformation from the NEA Foundation's Building State Affiliate Capacity Initiative
This publication provides state leaders committed to the important work of organizational transformation a road map of how to get started—and what to expect as efforts intensify. No two affiliates or the needs of their members are alike, so its focus is deliberately open-ended. It emphasizes a framework through which affiliate leaders can assess and begin efforts to transform their organizations to better serve professional advocacy, in whatever form those leaders determine is the best for their members, schools, and students. (Find the first report in the Organizing for Change series here.)
