| What is CausePlanet.org?
CausePlanet is one-stop reading for busy professionals who take their community leadership seriously. If you serve on a board or work for a nonprofit organization, you don’t have spare time to read dozens of books, Web sites and publications every day.
So we developed an unprecedented site that features a range of customized information for the nonprofit leader: interpreted books, articles from thought leaders, worldwide news and resources.
Articles, news and resources:
No one presents information like we do. Our readers enjoy weekly articles from thought leaders all over the planet and right here in our backyard. Worldwide news about nonprofits and academia, as well as job postings and career resources, refresh hourly.
Why are we different from other sites?
Mainly, because of our Page to Practice™ service for published works and how it relates to content throughout the site. We believe that books, articles and news represent an integrated approach to getting smarter faster.
Most of us occasionally read trade articles and the news when we can. Yet the majority of us rarely crack a book. Published works tackle professional growth in much greater depth and are the foundation of “the information pyramid.” Without this footing, implementing real change in the organization you serve lacks a greater framework and loses its impact.
That’s why CausePlanet has created Page to Practice™--so community leaders can get more out of what they read from other sources and a contextual basis for better comprehension and application.
What is Page to Practice™ ?
This one-of-a-kind tool interprets best-selling books each month in the nonprofit sector or great "cross-over" books from the corporate sector. This eight-ten page document provides leadership applications, nonprofit interpretations and in-depth author Q&As. Together, these elements create a unique tool that is chock full of useful tips that are synthesized for quick reading and application.
