Keeping an organization aligned with its mission

Peter Greer examines how faith-based organizations can gradually lose connection with their founding purpose, and how leaders can recognize and address that risk. Drawing on research comparing organizations that remain aligned with their mission with those that do not, the book organizes its guidance around assessing vulnerability, clarifying priorities and core tenets, and establishing safeguards. Review questions and further-reading recommendations extend the practical focus. Its subject is organizational leadership in charities and churches, with attention to how everyday decisions and measures of success relate to an organization’s stated mission.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Leaders and staff in faith-based charities or churches
  • Readers interested in organizational mission and nonprofit leadership
  • Groups seeking discussion material on mission clarity and safeguards

Book overview

Without careful attention, faith-based organizations drift from their founding mission. It's that simple. It will happen.

Why do so many organizations wander from their mission, while others remain Mission True? Can drift be prevented?

In Mission Drift, HOPE International executives Peter Greer and Chris Horst share the results of their research into Mission True and Mission Untrue organizations and show you how to:

● determine whether your organization is in danger of drift
● get back on track and protect what matters most
● inoculate yourself against drift now and build safeguards against it
● find clarity about your mission, cultural tone, and core tenets
● fully understand your priorities and metrics for success

Drift often happens in small and subtle ways. But with intentionality, courage, and resolve, you can follow a path of faithfulness.

Includes review questions and additional reading recommendations.
