Nature’s Keepers
Subtitled The Remarkable Story of How The Nature Conservancy Became the Largest Environmental Group in the World, this “management chronicle and inspirational leadership tale” from journalist Bill Birchard poses the question, What management skills are necessary for an organization to make a substantive difference over the long term? Birchard spent two years talking to more than 200 people and sifting through thousands of documents.
The resulting book recounts the stories of nine leaders who shaped the Conservancy’s response during times of crisis and transition throughout its history. From their mistakes and innovations, Birchard extracts broad lessons about how organizations renew themselves.
