The research study examines the influence of an African American religious preacher in organizing his congregation into a socioeconomic community. The research question is as fol-lows: How does the leadership performance influence (a) the social interaction of his congrega-tion, (b) the mobilization of congregates into members of a social group, and (c) the development of his congregation into an economic system? This study examines the Pastor, his role, influence, and management of power. Weber argued that there are three pure types of authority: rational, traditional, and charismatic. For an African American religious preacher, the authority would be considered to be charismatic. However, this study discovered that the Pastor of Washington Missionary Baptist Church, the field site for this ethnography, encompasses characteristics of each from of authority. Such characteristics are necessary in order to successfully manage a nonprofit organization, which requires a decentralization of power and shared leadership.

This study analyzes the assets and capabilities of nonprofit organizations under Resource-based theory through literature searches. The questionnaire which focuses on the characteristics of the organization and precinct, hopes to explore a good management model that enables the most efficient use of resources and yields effective management results. Such management model serves to provide guidance and recommendations for the most basic unit of the police authority - Police Station. It is common that the Police Department rotates the chief officer from time to time in order to prevent fraud or to meet the mission requirements. During the time of writing the paper, several police chiefs have rotated their positions. Because each chief has his own management style, the police staff needs to adapt to different ways of management. Unless the rules are written clearly by the higher level of authority, it is often seen that management styles would change as a different police chief is assigned to the position. There are no specifications for a standard management style in the provisions for police officers. Therefore, a chief¡¦s personal management and leadership style leads the police station to either success or faiure. This study concludes that individual stations are better able to achieve good results, implement sound internal controls and build solid relationships among colleagues when the leading officer employs a balanced management style that incorporates various strategies such as discussion, unique approaches based on individual needs, and hierarchical reporting.

Resources are a key to innovative actions -not only, but also- in nonprofit organizations (NPOs). With the societal obligation of NPOs to create innovative and effective approaches in responding to a variety of concerns such as poverty, human rights, social services, environmental protection etc. this study examines the resource foundations that make NPOs innovative. NPOs are known to show a considerable degree of pioneer work and innovativeness in responding to societal concerns (Salamon et al., 2004). To have NPOs maintain their innovative behavior it is of the utmost interest to identify those requirements and needs that support their specific functions. Organizational slack is suggested to be a very influential factor in determining the innovative behavior of NPOs. Organizational slack are these resources in or available to the organization that are in excess of the minimum necessary to produce a given level of organizational output (Geiger & Cashen, 2002). Innovation is the outcome of a creative process involving different actors which results in a qualitatively new means-end combination that is new to the market or the firm (Gemünden & Salomo, 2004). The question whether or not organizational slack fosters innovation, has not been answered unambiguously so far, since researchers deliver convincing arguments for both standpoints. Against this backdrop, the study seeks to explain the relationship between organizational slack and innovation in nonprofit organizations. More precisely it is of interest to find out how these two concepts are related, positively, negatively, or inversely U-shaped. A sample of 250 randomly selected Austrian NPOs is the data basis for the investigation and was generated in cooperation with Statistik Austria. Through questionnaires the data for the study was collected. To test the proposed hypotheses the data is analyzed through inferential statistics.
