Nonprofit, Inc.: Scaling with Purpose

In the nonprofit sector, there is often a frustrating disconnect between high-level theory and the daily realities of running an organization. In Nonprofit, Inc: Scaling with Purpose, mission-driven growth expert Carol Wick offers a lifeline out of "survival mode." Rooted in systems thinking and human‑centered leadership, this book provides a fresh approach to sustainable growth, aimed at helping leaders align their daily operations with their ultimate mission.

At the heart of the book is Carol's signature Five Factors™ Framework. Moving beyond abstract advice, this practical, field-tested model gives you the tools to assess and strengthen your organizational capacity across five essential pillars:

• Plan
• Outcomes
• Budget
• Team 
• Donors

By combining this diagnostic framework with real-world case studies and actionable guidance, Nonprofit, Inc serves as both a conceptual blueprint and a hands-on implementation guide.

Carol Wick isn’t just a theorist; she is a frontline practitioner. As an award‑winning CEO and the founder of Sharity, she brings decades of bold, equity‑centered strategy directly to the page. She has helped raise over $250 million, launched a national nonprofit for survivors, and guided hundreds of organizations to scale with integrity. Now, she is sharing the exact strategies she uses to transform the social sector.
