After several shots of early morning coffee Michael Gilbert squeezes his brain for all it’s worth in order to produce some pretty darn impressive thoughts on nonprofit life. Then he goes on the prowl for inspiring sources,data, and opinions on what nonprofits need to do next to succeed. Why?

He is currently Vice President for Development at Hebrew College, Newton MA.Tumblr (3.0; @michael-gilbert)http://michael-gilbert.com/<img src="http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_kujnogcPVv1qaxgldo1_r1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>http://michael-gilbert.com/post/280300859http://michael-gilbert.com/post/280300859Wed, 16 Dec 2009 13:55:29 -0500I am often asked (or at least I fantasize that I am often asked), “Michael, if you had only one...http://michael-gilbert.com/post/286371370http://michael-gilbert.com/post/286371370Wed, 16 Dec 2009 13:52:00 -0500There is an awful lot of griping about nonprofits these days, and most of it has to do with...http://michael-gilbert.com/post/285607391http://michael-gilbert.com/post/285607391Tue, 15 Dec 2009 23:02:00 -0500nonprofitsmissionDoes your place rely heavily on philanthropic hand-outs – maybe too heavily?
