Bøker av Joel J. Orosz

The author researched ten museums founded prior to 1870, using primary sources. Those chosen comprised a geographically diverse sample of pre-1870 American museums and covered a range of disciplines, among them art, history, and natural science.

This book examines the most common reasons that foundation managers fail, and details the steps they must take in order to succeed. In overcoming the seven vexing challenges and strategizing the seven inescapable trade-offs, foundation managers can learn to maximize their positive social impact and avoid unintended lousy results.
