Management of International Institutions and NGOs. Frameworks, practices and challenges

International Institutions (IIs), International NGOs (INGOs) and Transnational Hybrid Organizations (THOs) play a hugely important role in the modern world economy. Despite having been studied by scholars from a range of disciplines, these organizations have never before been approached from a management perspective. This ambitious book analyzes the management challenges associated with interna- tional cooperation and sheds light on how these organizations have evolved as the political, economic and business environments have changed around them. The authors cover an admirably broad canvas by including topics such as program delivery modalities, strategic management, financial and human resource manage- ment. This book is based on a strong ‘hands on’ approach and includes several case studies illustrating the practices and challenges of real organizations, from the World Bank to the Gates Foundation.
