Market orientation and organizational performance in the nonprofit context. Exploring both concepts and the relationship between them.

Duque-Zuluaga, Lola C., Schneider, Ulrike January 2006 (has links) (PDF)
The purpose of this paper is to explore the relationship between the concepts market orientation and organizational performance for nonprofit organizations. To understand the nature of this link in the nonprofit context, the authors will discuss and elaborate on the applicability of both concepts to nonprofits. They will develop multidimensional notions of "societal orientation" and "nonprofit organizational performance," which fit the specific operating environment of nonprofit organizations engaged in the provision of health and social services. The authors also propose a conceptual framework that relates both notions and present the main underlying propositions. They conclude by suggesting items to empirically measure both constructs and venues for future research. (author´s abstract) / Series: Working Papers / Institut für Sozialpolitik

Significant shifts in relation to formal governance practice in South Africa : from an action research perspective. A work in progress: Implications for the Valley Trust.

Green, Elizabeth Goodwill. January 2005 (has links)
This dissertation explores the relevance of corporate governance in the nonprofit sector in South Africa, and asks the question "How can the application of current formal governance measures lead to positive change at The Valley Trust? ". Significantly, in South Africa it has been a time of transformation, with the emergence of world-class strategies to enhance governance in both the public and the private sectors. Are the principles of good governance are applicable too, to non-profit organisations? South Africa has evidence of relevant documentation both in the public and private sectors. In the private sector the King 2002 report strengthened the original King report which in turn was guided by the Cadbury report on corporate governance in the North. The King 2002 report on corporate governance is considered to be world class and emphasises risk management, leadership, direction, control and disclosure. The Public Finance Management Act, together with the subsequent Treasury Regulations and the local government's Municipal Finance Management Act, spell out the way forward for governance in the public sector with the emphasis on effectiveness, efficiency and economy as assessment criteria in terms of revenue, expenditure, assets and liabilities (REAL) with special reference to risk management and accountability. In terms of enhancing sustainability and good stewardship, The Valley Trust, a non-profit organisation working in Primary Health Care and Development in Southern Africa, has the opportunity to use the resources available, and to apply the current thinking and principles of good governance. / Thesis (M.Com.)-University of KwaZulu-Natal, 2005.

The Effects of Non Profit Agency Website Donation Button Design on Aid Agency Trust and Donation Compliance

Gibbons, Sophie Elizabeth January 2010 (has links)
This research aimed to develop a deeper understanding of trust and non-profit agency website design, and specifically focussed on the ‘Donate Now’ button. Two experiments investigated the effects of varying levels of consumer certainty, manipulated by providing varying levels of donation relevant information on the web homepage donation buttons, on aid agency trust and donation compliance. Both experiments were based on Study 1, a preliminary survey of website donation button design. Experiment 1 investigated the effects of iconic manipulation of the ‘Donate Now’ button. Results suggested that varying levels of consumer certainty through iconic manipulation of the website donation button design did not effect aid agency trust and donation compliance. Experiment 2 extended the research of Burt and Dunham (2009) to investigate the effects of varying consumer certainty levels through the provision of crisis/need and response photographs on the donation buttons. Results suggested that whilst there was no effect of level of certainty on donation compliance, there was an effect on aid agency trust. Participants’ rated aid agency trust was increased to the greatest extent in the level of greatest certainty, when the donation button contained photographs of both the crisis/need and agency response. Collectively, these results suggest that aid agency trust can be enhanced through the considered manipulation of donation button design. Subsequently photographic images may be a more effective means with which to portray donation-relevant information and reduce uncertainty. Furthermore, in both experiments results showed that those individuals who reported higher aid agency trust also reported significantly higher donation intention. Thus, the current research has implications for the non-profit sector, suggesting that whilst the internet is a viable fundraising tool, the commercially driven process of online donation generation should not be isolated from the psychological concept of trust.
