    Summary of an article Nonprofit Networking: The New Way to Grow by Harvard Business School professor Jane Wei-Skillern.May 16, 2005.

    Professor Wei-Skillern's main argument focuses on how nonprofits can achieve substantial gains in their social impact not only by growing, but often through the judicious use of decentralized networks with existing organizations-ranging from "sector-level umbrella organizations, to intraorganizational networks, to grassroots networks."She cites the National Audubon Society in the United States and Guide Dogs for the Blind Association in the U.K. as good examples of this.

    Such networks are inherently more participatory in their decision-making structures and, as Wei-Skillern suggests, may hold carry great potential for helping charitable organizations maximize their mission.
