All this can only lead to a more effective use of consultants and more successful nonprofits."Sandra Renner, MSW, CFRE, Renner ConsultingStrategic Philanthropic Counsel "This book is an excellent source for a development or foundation director to read before hiring any type of consultant. It guides you through the search process and tells you how to evaluate your prospects.

It even suggests how to use consultants as a creative resource!"Jeanne G. Jacob, CAE, CFRE, Executive DirectorGoodwin House Foundation
