While the lack of resources represents a big challenge for nonprofits wanting to develop and sustain innovative ideas, some nonprofits are using a handful of key strategies to overcome those challenges, a new report says.
The report follows a survey in early 2010 by the Johns Hopkins Listening Post Project that focused on nonprofit innovation and performance measurement.
The Listening Post Project held an online webinar in December 2010 that brought together nonprofit experts, representatives of nonprofit "intermediary" groups, and nonprofit practitioners.
The webinar generated ideas for three strategies to overcome funding limitations and successfully adopt innovations, the report says.
