Comment
This course, co-taught by Achim von Heynitz and Prof. Dr. Heike Grimm, focuses on the critical aspects of performance management, budgeting, and accountability within nonprofit organizations (NPOs). Key themes will include the differences between nonprofit and other sector organizations, the role of NPOs in public service delivery, and the challenges of strategic decision-making in mission-driven contexts. The course draws on foundational theories, including Mazzucato’s Mission Economy and Moore’s Creating Public Value, to explore how vision, mission, and values guide organizational strategy. Students will examine real-world case studies, applying tools such as SWOT and PESTEL analyses to strategic decision-making, and will delve into performance measurement and results-based budgeting as essential mechanisms for improving nonprofit outcomes. Throughout the course, students will be introduced to critical concepts such as results-based management (RBM), the Kennedy School’s “Strategic Triangle,” and the shift from compliance-based to performance-based budgeting (PBB). They will learn how to align strategic goals with budgeting priorities, assess risks, and incorporate performance indicators into decision-making processes. The course includes an intensive two-day workshop and culminates in case study presentations that apply lessons learned in class adding a focus on transferring nonprofit practices to the Global South (or vice versa). The final assignments will focus on applying RBM in nonprofit settings to enhance accountability and performance.
