Nonprofits Told Success Is Tied to Their Ability to Collaborate

massnonprofit.org ::: In many ways the sector has made immeasurable gains by adopting many of the best qualities of the private sector, but the nonprofit sector has a unique quality that is better suited for the landscape – its willingness and ability to collaborate,” said Rick Jakious, CEO of the Massachusetts Nonprofit Network (MNN), the state’s nonprofit trade association, told a crowd of nearly 600 who gathered for MNN’s annual conference in Marlborough.

“Collaboration is the tide that will either lift us all or leave us beached,”he said, adding, “It’s really up to us here to decide, as we go back to our various corners of the Commonwealth to our different organizations, whether we are going to take responsibility for improving and advancing collaboration within the sector.”
